Taken from 34decmossamigainjunctiopnshow_case_doc.pdf 14. Hyperion had secured access to the re-worked code to OS 3.1 from Olaf Barthel nearly one month before it entered into the Agreement with amiga, and Hyperion therefore had all the source code nevessary to develop OS 4.0. Mr. Barthel, a one-time contractr for ESCOM, saw that the AMiga OS build process wasvery messy and on his own accord, and without any license or instruction, wrote a modern version of OS 3.1 that could be used on a PC rahter than a Sun wrkstation. I found out about Mr. Barthel's own build version of OS 3.1 while I was working at Gateway on Amiga OS 3.5. I recommended to the than Manager of Gatway, Jeff Schindler, that he pay Mr. Barthel and obtain his version of OS 3.1. Mr. Schindler told me that he had paid Mr. Barthel and I only found out a few years later that he had not done so. It is time to sue Gatway now, as they sold something they didn't own or owned.

Zitat: Yeah - but the company that bought the Amiga assets from Gateway was AInc(W). AInc(W) is now defunct. The current AInc(D) can't sue Gateway. They could sue KMOS, KMOS could sue ITEC, ITEC could sue AInc(W) and AInc(W), if they were still in business, could then sue Gateway... -- Ciao, Dandy Wenn es jemandem Spaß macht, zu Marschmusik in Reih' und Glied zu marschieren, so verachte ich ihn schon.

> The current AInc(D) can't sue Gateway. They could sue KMOS No, because Amiga Inc. Delaware ist the former KMOS. They just renamed themselves. [ - Answer - Quote - Direct link - ] |

Zitat: O.K. - if they don't want to sue themselves, they could sue ITEC in the meantime... -- Ciao, Dandy Wenn es jemandem Spaß macht, zu Marschmusik in Reih' und Glied zu marschieren, so verachte ich ihn schon.
