Ok. The Amiga community's response to Bill McEwen's replies to 25 questions asked by the community really reads like a soap-opera script. In fact, this soap-opera has been going on long before he even decided to answer questions. We have a brilliant script and we didn't even have to hire script-writers to get it.

I think it's time we picked a good name for this Amiga soap-opera. We need a good title we can use to sell this to the world. So, any suggestions? Is the name "Amiga Forever" already taken? It is? really? Darn. That would have been a cool title.

@Hans

[humor mode hopefully on]
"Another World" is taken, but appropriate.
"As the World Turns" could be changed to "As the Stomach Turns".
"Days of Our Lives" could be changed to "Days of Our Lies".
[/humor mode stuck in "on" position]

Note:Above references are to actual titles of soap operas in the U.S. over the years.
Never watched any, but I doubt they could compete with reality. Heh!

What about a sequel of Kevin Costner "Waterworld", called "Can't Stop The Liars" with theme song "Samantha"?
(1980 movie "Can't Stop The Music" - by Village People)

The movie will be made in Italy (Spaghetti Western style shooting scenes), complete with massive sets comparable to "Gladiator". With similar budget and loss comparable to the first "Waterworld" (US$ 200 Million), the movie will be a perfect money laundering scheme by Cosa Nostra. :)

Every announcement / Press release I can think of have been a disappointment…

From the where day they announced the Classic AmigaOS dead and long live Amiga DE/ Amiga Anywhere.

* The day they announced the T-Shirt scam

* The day they removed the CAM from there web site.

* The managed to make bad blood whit Hagge & Partner and Amiga Inc after AmigaOS 3.9

* The made bad blood whit BBRV.

* The day they removed AmigaOS3. x content from there web site.

* The day they stopped promoting Amiga OS.

* The day they talked about suing Hyperion.

* Troika not getting a license.

* AHT not getting a license.

I can blame them for lots more; they are not the right company to hold any Amiga ownership, right now I prefer BBRV / blogs even if they empty talk at lest he show some interest.
