Instead of addressing questions based on a series of factual information declare that those trying to frankly discuss something are angry. I don't see anyone angry here. So lets stow that diversionary statement (whether intended as such or not). You are free to answer what you want and ignore addressing what you want. etc... As a moderator you should really think about what you write, you sound really angry yourself in your post and there is really no point in doing that, do you really think you will get a proper reply?

Well if you are not willing to take me at my word that I am not angry, then I am not quite sure what I can do for you, beyond repeat that I am not and say that is not the impression I am wishing to portray. That said, I have always tended to be direct and thorough, and I have never shied away from asking any of the "tough" questions. But that goes not just for Amiga, it goes for Genesi, Hyperion, DiscreetFX, anyone. And I stand by my posting history supporting that statement.

I will also repeat again, Jamie's hiring was the most credible thing Amiga has done in years, and again, thats paying him a compliment. That dosen't mean in my book he is not someone any of us need to avoid having a frank conversation with. If he is capable of posting about Hyperion vs. Amiga in the court case, and OS5, and Bill deserving a break from the community. Well then he should be capable of clearing the air a bit on why he thinks he is right and that prevailing opinion is wrong. My questions are meant to allow him to do just that. They are "tough" questions because a lot of really bizarre stuff that has gone on over the years, quite the soap opera in fact, but I did not create any of those situations, the companies involved did. I am merely asking about them and how Jamie got to his stated conclusions about them.

You ripped the words right out of my mouth.
