    Your translation is wrong ;-) He's just playing word games.

    Him: "People should give more money to Hyperion!"
    Me: How about Ben pays back the 500k bucks he stole according to Dickinson? That should pay for a lot of OS4 development..."
    Him: "It's news to me that Ben stole 500k bucks from Hyperion..."

    The important part is the "from Hyperion" bit.

    The translation was "Is it completely new to me ... source?" as if he was not sure whether it was or was not "new" to him, hence why I asked. heh.

    Given Costel had written since his return to OS4welt about the different ways one could look at "blame", I just found it dumbfounding how one could not include the singlemost important event as part of that discussion.

    Maybe that "repayment schedule" was what made Dickinson a Hyperion shareholder? :-)

    Not to be repetitive, but we know how that turned out, no?

    now there are 2245 shares of which Ben Hermans owns at least 2135

    Thanks. So Amiga Corp., the owner of the Amiga trademark, has registered the mark in the EU, while Cloanto Corp., who licensed the mark from Amiga Corp., has registered it in the US?

    hopefully clears up some confusion

    Bottom line is that the assignment to Amiga Corporation will take place. I'm informed it's a matter of just days.(It's a uspto issue basically).

    As I understand it, the actual registration document I linked to will also be amended to reflect Amiga Corporation.

    Take care. Stay well,

    Indeed, it does. Thanks again (and sorry for not reading carefully enough, your comment #8 was already in that thread when you linked to it).

    Basically what I reported, but in the form of a news article:

    AmigaNews (english]

    AmigaNews (german)

    The German version is acquiring the expected amount of speculation (in comments) as to what this all means. Might be of interest to some. Personally I find much inaccuracy.

    In the comments? That's to be expected ;-)
