Yes, it looks like that was planned from the start. I don't think MacOS was that bad that it needed replacing and it's almost a shame as a system like Windows hasn't been replaced for a foreign OS. And a system like Linux, with it's old fashion looking lower case commands and kernel calls, somehow was more future proof than MacOS and AmigaOS combined. For Amiga, it had no parent company to make that kind of decision, since they died. And OS4 is the closest to any OS3 follow up. I tend to think the AmigaOS is perhaps more sacred and that replacing it with a skin and matching apps sitting on a foreign OS wouldn't work. Apart from being too late to be practical I don't know how such an idea would work in the Amiga scene. I don't think I'd be really interested as what makes OS4 an AmigaOS is the core AmigaOS code forming it. The community is too small for offshoots. The world has settled on Windows, Linux and a Mac skin on Unix. And that's my take on it.

Minor update.

3rd lawfirm on the Hyperion side no longer involved in the case.

This is the firm where John Bamert was working, who participated in the deposition of Evert Carton.

A few weeks ago he departed to form a new lawfirm.

Motions made awaiting court rulings since March are still unattended to, as well as a ruling on acceptance of the deposition.
The last "schedule" still shows that nothing will be done until 30-45 days after the March motions are ruled upon.

Although Amiga Corporation has registered and received the registration certificate -for- "Amiga", it is obvious they still can not use it.
This also, in turn, freezes any resolution with Intellivision LLC over trademark similarity and any other plans.
