Portal: amiga.com.pl and amiga.hu boycott Amiga Inc.
Because of Amiga Inc.'s plans to provide Microsoft Windows CE.NET with
software www.amiga.com.pl and
www.amiga.hu have decided to boycott
Amiga Inc.. All links to Amiga Inc. will be removed from the pages and
there'll be no more publications of news regarding the company, their
products and their employees. As far as Amiga Klassik, MorphOS etc. is
concerned everything will stay the same.
«"The latest Amiga Inc. policy shifts... give us no other option than to say
farewell to them for good..." That was the public statement of Grzegorz
Juraszek of Poland's Amiga news service amiga.com.pl.
Balogh Karoly of the Hungarian Amiga news service followed suit. "We the
editors of amiga.hu hereby join the Polish boycott." Karoly cited a public
opinion poll that showed users strongly disapproved of recent events at
Amiga Inc.
The developments are in response to announcements by both Amiga Inc. and
Microsoft that the two companies have formed an axis. Amiga Inc. intends to
provide software to Windows CE devices, and is appearing at the current
Embedded Systems Conference in San Francisco, USA.
The Russian Amiga Information Center www.amiga.org.ru had not yet taken a
public position as of press time.»
