Amiga and Hyperion Settle Ownership of AmigaOS

HKcastaway writes "Amiga Inc and Hyperion Entertainment announced a settlement over ownership and licensing over AmigaOS 4.0 and future versions. Since the bankruptcy of Commodore, Amiga's history has been littered with lawsuits that have affected the development of Amiga hardware and software. Having a lawsuit-free OS probably will help a great deal to the continuity and recovery of the Amiga heritage. Hyperion also provides AmigaOS SDKs for developers.'

Uh...dude? You do know that the Model T is one of the most uncomfortable vehicles known to man? And by that I'm including a bus station bench as a "vehicle". (Some Slashdot users have never sat on a bus bench before - if this is you, then imagine sitting down to Starbucks for one of their incredibly cheap and yet so addictive coffee flavored drinks, and then finding that all the seats have had their cushions torn out, and the staff is utterly indifferent.)

PS the "new VW bug" had nothing, absolutely zippo to do with the VW Bug. They just reused the name because it had brand recognition, that's all. TNVWB is a boutique product totally the opposite of the "people's car".
