Actually, it is us Blue Faithful who will be at a disadvantage. You see, the human eye can go from red light to near complete darkness without the need to adjust for the lighting. Blue light, however, depletes the chemicals in our retinas which are used to detect variances in lighting.

In the end, this becomes the classic "Red versus Blue" battle for our souls.

What he did (trying to pass off a product as an officially licensed amiga computer) now constitutes fraud and misrepresentation of the product he's selling. It will be awesome to see him try and weasel his way out of this one.

for the rest of us... Rejoice. Now fpga amigas, aros amigas, amithlon amigas,os4 amigas and yes morphos amigas can now be branded as amigas without interference from the amiga grave robbers.

Maybe aros can change its name back to amiga research operating system without fear of the amiga grave robbers.

Maybe amithlon can now be branded amiga os x86. as it should have been.

Amiga is freed. **** the grave robbers. Your all ****ed now, and everyone knows it. Amiga is now free...

I hope clusteruk reboots imica computers as amiga AROS pc's.

I hope someone starts selling converted macs as morphos amiga workstations.

I hope broadway becomes amiga os x86 broadway.

I hope fpha arcade become amiga arcade...

I hope netami finally finish that stuff and sell the natami AMIGA.

I even hope os4 people just call their computers amigas instead of amigaones or some other bull**** to not piss off the amiga grave robbers.

Silly billy AND CUSA are dead now. **** silly billy.

Long live amiga... But **** all the amiga grave robbers...

Well if it's gonna be a fight, I'll have to remember a They Live-type one-liner. "Hope your eyes can stand...the blue-light special!" *PUNCH*
