I'll be honest, I've never taken the amiga.com site seriously. By the time it appeared, basically, all that was really left was the community and a few 3rd party hardware/software producers. As such, sites like this have always had more relevance to me.

Because they own the rights to the logo, name, branding, etc. That and the bastards actually pretend on their site to have actually developed the amiga, and that doesn't stand.

So yeah, Are we actually gonna do it or what? Say, £5 each, then branch out to the other amiga sites? What's a realistic goal? Amiga inc can't be worth anything.

The alternative is to wait until the domain expires and grab it first.

I'm noticing they all have Amiga Development India listed under "Past". Some of them left long before the change from Ruksun to ADI, but a few are more recent departures. Wonder if that has anything to do with ADI's financial health, or simply the paths their careers have taken?

I have to mention that educated people from India tend to be extremely intelligent.

I use telnet quite a lot for BBSing but I'm usng Linux or Windows for that and theres already some really good clients available.

They need to let go of the Amiga name already.

Omg....I wish they would close that website for good or sell it to someone who actually does business...

This is beyond clown acts and i'm sure clowns would be offended by my remark
