| It is with deep sadness that I report that Dave Morse, the co-founder of Amiga Computer (Jay's business partner), has passed away.
Dave was a true master of business and trust. Few people know that Amiga was as much a product of Dave as it was from Jay.
Dave and I worked together on several technology businesses since Amiga. He had an amazing ability and intuition in the business domain.
Dave will be missed. Here's my personal tribute... In Memory of Dave Morse

Really sad news! My condolences to his family and friends!
It's always sad to loose a good colleague and friend. Its just four weeks ago that a dear colleague and friend here at Fords Homologation Office in Cologne died at the age of 51 (heart attack) - just one and a half week after he buried his father.
Last Saturday would have been his 52nd birthday...

| Peace and Rest in Peace Let us remember what they delivered to us, "The Amiga Community" and all the fun they had. Now its our turn to honor them, knowing that those that have loved Amiga and have passed on will be our guardian angels pointing us towards a more modern Amiga World. _________________ Quote:
