@bobson

he means toxic in legal sense, f.e. the dispute between cloanto and hyperion

And of course the disputes in the past like the wars on the web between MorphOS team and Hyperion

But I am not sure how many people outside the community remember Amiga at all. I assume most left in the 90s

I don't think AmigaOS name is toxic - far from it. Amiga and AmigaOS names still have value - a wider audience (not Amigans... not those who've lived through the nonsense) will remember the name fondly. That's something which can be capitalised on.

Which is why all parties who have any saying in the matter are spending their "fortunes" in court these days, fighting over the brand, copyrights, distribution rights, its trademarks etc. Or to sum it up in one word - toxic.
