Just looked at Commodore USA website, how can anyone take them seriously?


Same could have been/was/is said about Hyperion's and AInc.'s websites, both of whcih claimed for over a decade to be professional companies producing serious and next gen software for the mobile device market, and we all know what happenned to both, one appears to be on the verge of bankrupcy and the other has been relegated to making and supporting a now "hobby" OS for a sub 2000 consumer market.

Bottom line is that pretty much anything Amiga has been directed at a shrinking niche market for the better part of 15 years and is not likely to change anytime soon. Glossy web sites, product brochures and/or marketting campains will not likely change that for some time to come, especially the products they peddle don't sell well or catch on with new and/or nostalgic consumers.
