Amiga History Help needed!
Just popping in

See User information
Greetings All,

With the up and coming
1) 25th anniversary of the Amiga,
2) The off, and on writing of my memoirs.
3) The need to preserve the history yet unknown to the public.

I find myself writing chapters and subchapters of material that I have had locked away and preserved regarding the Amiga etc. Stuff that brings out the popcorn!

While this is a part time project and may take from 6 months to 18 months to finish it, yet it needs to be done.

To be fair and balanced I have a few ?open holes? in the material that needs to be researched fully. One such area is the failed attempt by parties who attempted and failed to purchase the Amiga assets from Gateway. This is the time period of what would become ?Amiga Inc.?.

Looking for those parties involved with, or with direct knowledge to confidentially contact me. The material can be attributed as ?Anonymous? or with a footnote.

Understand fully this is a book of ?Truth? not any spin! The full truth of those years needs to be preserved, explained and told without being ?Rewritten?.

Is this to be a book like "On the Edge" but with total emphasis on the history of the Amiga? I know people would love a book like that.

You can always check the "Amiga Retrospective" series written for "Amiga Future" magazine by someone called R.T.Dickinson, whoever that is?

Part 18 is included in issue 84 which will be released in early May. The series which started in "Total Amiga" magazine and transferred to Amiga Future attempts to cover the complete history of the Amiga.

BTW issue 84 also contains an A1-X1000 update report.

Did any of you find out why Gateway canned my Siamese PCI Amiga project then. I would be interested to know why that chapter of my life ended so badly.
