| In an Italian forum was reported this site:
http://www.amigausa.com
It seems something old, anyway I guess it does an illegal use of Amiga, AmigaOS and other trademarks... _________________ A1200/020+68882 - 6 MB RAM - AmigaOS 3.0

After looking at that site, I think there is a lot of Bull Dust, smoke and mirrors.

It works in IBrowse, and you can scroll the header graphic up and down. 
It seems to act like an Amiga retailer. And tries to clone the Amiga Inc site it looked like. But I doubt they have been around since 1983? So they are claiming to be the orginal Amiga company form the US? Did someone in the US finally buy the Amiga out? 
Seem they are not interested in NG Amiga but only OldG Amiga. Last edited by Hypex on 07-Jun-2010 at 03:45 PM.

Prbably just doesn't know who owns the Amiga trademark and put up a site to attract the owner rather than just searching the trademarks database.... |

No Hyperion trademarks were harmed in the development of the site, but it does appear to tread on some Amiga Inc ones....
