    Someone obviously isn't quite ready to announce anything.


    Somehow the pattern feels kind of familiar? I'm thinking of when the X1000 was first announced on a.org and then suddenly a bombastic post from trevordick that it had been scrapped altogether (later it was understood that it was because his initial deal with BenH/Hyperion crashed) but then suddenly that message was withdrawn when a new partner stepped in. They explained the deleted message with the account had been hacked? Or whatever...

    What I mean to say is, that this could perhaps be a negotiation style? A bit like the Donald Trump style, i.e. "rattling the saber"?


    I thought it was the Donald Trump "Gibbering Idiot" negotiating style. ;-) Hard to rattle sabers when you cozying up to most of your former enemies (outside of Iran - then its a "You're with us, or against us" style).

    Oh, and I'm unsure why there seems to be a lack of confidence in the license on the AmigaOne trademark.
    Unless the entire settlement agreement is voided, that asset ought to be secure.
