| Amiga, Inc are a "company" (an excuse for) that lives off lawsuits, it seems.
Everything they do, seems to go against keeping the Amiga platform alive and keeping hold of the 'few' users left.
I for one, have no idea what goes on behind closed doors, but their website has been proof of the shambles for a long long time. An excuse, holding onto a famous brand name, to try and salvage some money any way they can.
Jesus, see the logic.
As I said, and Dave Haynie added...computing sums up society these days.
I signed the petition anyway.
[will edit one more moan into this comment] - Hyperion manage to release OS4 (even if it was late) and Amiga, Inc (now it is in an advantageous position to do so) come along with a lawsuit, basically to take AmigaOS from Hyperion. That's nice. One more thing that has been done for them, that they didn't have to pay for.
For me, this is quite the nail in the coffin.

| We could also send a petition to the Jews and the Palestinians, or for that matter we could solve all the problems of the world with a petition. Are we so naive as a community?

| Okay,
Someone give me an effective idea, that is do-able and will make Amiga and Hyperion listen to us, the user
I am happy to concede to anyone who has a brilliant idea that will actually work.

| So the splitter wants to unite us now? No thanks I'll pass. Anyone else want to try and I'll support you. |

| I don't want your help, the Amiga community wants your help. Fine so you don't like me, that's okay, I won't be losing any sleep over it.
Don't vote, fine, cut off your nose to spite your face.
Ridiculous

| It's a nice generic petition, but I don't think I'll sign unless it says we want Amiga Inc. to either leave Hyperion's custom OS4 alone, or give Hyperion the promised OS 3.x code for the originally planned more simplistic conversion.

Everyone seems to forget that. I wonder if the situation was reversed and hyperion was going after Amiga Inc, would this petition exist?. |

You had a chance to be a uniter but choose not to. What is ridiculous is that you come back here as if you did nothing. I would rather listen to BB than you. Go back to where you can edit your opposition into obscurity. |
