Amiga & AROS Tedd Gallion, speaking on behalf of a group called the DiscreetFX partners, has sent out a letter to the Amiga community with quite an interesting topic: to buy out the AmigaOS4 and the Amiga brand from Amiga, Inc. The letter states that DiscreetFX and its partners have contacted Amiga, Inc., but that the company asked a completely insane amount of money. DiscreetFX and its partners now ask the community to contact Amiga, Inc., and urge them to sell the Amiga OS and its brand to DiscreetFX for a fair price. "Urge Amiga Inc. sell to us for a fair price. We will end the lawsuit, we will end the fighting., we will end the madness. If we were in charge Amiga OS 4.0 would be available today on SAM." Spelling and grammar weren't exactly a priority in the letter, so credibility is a bit dubious. The credibility has been more or less confirmed.

"I wonder how much GEOS is going for these days..."

$99.95 USD, now called "Breadbox Ensemble" (the OS itself is an OEM product) - here is the web site of the current owners: http://www.breadbox.com/

Yeah, but I can't buy a copy, that website hasn't been updated in 2 years, and the links to their flagship GEOS product, the geobook, is a dead link... GEOS is about as dead as Amiga now.
