It's dead, okay? Dead! It does look a lot like an Amiga. I was surprised, too, the first time I saw it. But no matter what it looks like, it isn't an Amiga. You shouldn't have brought it here in the first place!
(Yeah, but...it needed our help!) Excuses again? (Yeah, but...) That's it. No more. Enough, Commodore! #modifiedfinalfantasyxquotes P.S. Mine is very much alive, just like this scene and forum Don't know about the name "Comodo", sounds like a toilet. |

It's just a PC in a keyboard. Nothing more.

Bwhahahahaha Hahahaha... Oh dear
They are really desperate for any kind of income. Ah well, the real pathetic bit is that people might actually buy them :s |

Not Bill, but Hyperion will sue them for sure.

And all this trouble for this advertising gimmick, to sell all the old All-In-One Pcs they bought from Cybernetman in 2007/2008.

They annouced this new PCs in replicas of the C64 & Amiga chassis. But all they have on their website are renderings (Amiga) or stolen C64 mod pics from 2003.

And what? A threatening e-mail to osnews? I'm pretty sure Hyperion will sue. They got the Amiga OS 3.X rights some month ago.

From what i've read they have the exclusive rights on Amiga OS 3.X. We will see what happens if Amiga Inc. maybe gives C-USA more than a licence to use the brand name/logo. Official AROS development support? We will see.
