"In 1997 Mr. McEwen was recruited by Gateway Computer to join the Amiga team, after the acquisition of the Amiga assets by Gateway. Mr. McEwen was in charge of Marketing, Developer and Community relations as well as being part of the team that helped establish the new direction for Amiga. In 2005 Amiga was acquired by KMOS, Inc. a Delaware Corporation where he named the President and CEO of Amiga, Inc. It was during his time at Amiga where he was introduced to Chris Beskar at Stavatti."

Not even an April's fool joke sadly.

No single aeroplane actually produced since 1994, but managed to acquire tax payers' money already...

@Senex

Want to take a guess what OS this none existent aeroplane runs? Why it's magically maybe secretly powered by OS5.0, better than OS X!

Yet another scam.

You know what it annoys me when gov gives out contracts to companies without due diligence and usually dodgy means and they never seem to be held accountable.

I will always remember one in particular of ferry shipping company wich had no ship and website with a pizza firm term and conditions got awarded a £13million contract for brexit shipping, it made me laugh and cry to how bad it’s gotten, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaborne_Freight
Why on earth did consultants get £800,000 for this crap and they even have to award euro tunnel £33 million out of this mess and now the story long forgotten never to be brought up again.

Brexit bought the UK some great scams for sure.

@all

There will be a long investigative video into Bill coming to Youtube soon! I was quiet surprised when I learned what he has been up to!

@Senex

Plus they associate with known scammer David Wilcox who sells a course (amongst others) on how to speak to extra terrestrials and another on how to build a free energy machine.

Is that his nickname? I didn't know Bill was high resolution. PAL or NTSC Hires Bill?

He's HiRes Laced with a dash of Monochrome BS.

I don't think those things are for lack of due diligence, they are on purpose... In Portugal we had some people connected to the socialist party in government make up a lithium mining company in one or two weeks and miraculously win the contract.. They even managed to fire a journalist that was more outspoken about it, sometime later... Everything goes on, and people pretend everything is normal... Same crap, just with different people...

Oh dear, what a joke. Googling the company name yields this description - "This looks more like a cool fan site than a real company..." "I think the only reason it is there is to attract dumb investors who like to be fooled."
