Amiga Inc.: Rumours about the return of Jim Collas denied
The latest issue of UK's print magazine Total Amiga claims that there
are rumours about a new CEO at Amiga Inc. The "Buzz Word" rumour column, where an anonymous insider
reveils that latest "industry" rumours, the following statement can be found (quoted with permission):
"Buzz Word has heard that Amiga are about to get a new CEO but it won't be Garry Hare; apparently the whole
Genesi/ Garry Hare story was a setup designed to produce confusion. The new CEO is a man who will bring many
millions of investment dollars back into the company. The Man's name? Jim Collas."
Asked if this is a joke, Robert Willaims, editor of Total Amiga, assured us that he "honestly
doesn't know whether the rumour about Jim Collas is true or not".
Thus we contacted Bill McEwen, CEO of Amiga Inc. and asked for a short statement. Bill writes:
"It is just a joke, and I agree a good one. I found it to be pretty funny.
I also thought that it was funny that they stated that Garry Hare was
replaced by Jim, when I have not even been replaced yet ;-)
I am still CEO, and still enjoying the ride."
