Re: Amiga fails to deliver cash, loses naming rights to Kent arena

You, and possibly many others, are forgetting something: Bill McEwen had left all of this behind. But the one who is talented enough in business matters to have been the financial steward for George Soros asked him to come back and run the company again. Now, if some here would take off their hate-colored glasses and take another look at the facts, that really should open some eyes.

Please don't go down this road. There seems to be some rather high emotions involved and some people just don't know the whole story. It is perfectly fine to question the motives behind the actions but don't go accusing people of being driven by hate when the may just be driven by simple ignorance. Please choose your words more carefully and keep an open mind.

So, as long as the misplaced revenge you and others here seek is exacted on someone, you really don't care what kind of cretin the exposing instrument actually is, do you?

All Rich Woods does is embarrasses people and causes them harm. He doesn't actually end up doing any good for anyone because no good ever comes out of it. And no, revenge is not something good. He's not trying to do good for anyone, but only digging up dirt on people and exposing it—to no good purpose at all. He might think of himself as some sort of arbiter of good and evil, but until he digs into his own past and publicly exposes his own dirt for all to see I will not be a fan of his.

As to whether he is this other entity's puppet, I think it is quite likely that, wittingly or otherwise, he is doing that other entity's bidding quite nicely.

And yes, that other entity has been under multiple corporate identities. I can count at least three—and that is just off the top of my head.



You play a game by dropping hints at someone being responsible but will not name them. This can lead to gossip and conjecture pointing to the wrong party. Thats assuming you have any proof on which party orchestrated this as you seem to be saying. Since this can harm an innocent party with your gossip please do the right thing and name who you would accuse or drop it. Thats the right thing to do.

I don't seek revenge on anyone. You wish to spout such for what appears to be some odd blind devotion to Amiga Inc. Amiga has a history of troubles their potential business partner deserved to know. They found out and stuck by the deal in the end anyway. Amiga at the bottom line in the end was the only one trying to alter the deal. Their word was not their bond.

The point with Rich Woods is that he is an individual who did what he did and made no bones about it. He is upfront at what he did , plain and simple. He is not playing the cloak and dagger game you are using this as an opportunity for, in some apparant crusade on your part to deal a blow to who you view to be enemies of Amiga Inc. or something.

Kouri doing work for Soros at one time says nothing to any of us about what the man's business morals or ethics are, nor what McEwen's are. Nor does it divine what role Amiga Inc. takes in the larger Kouri family of companies.

Regarding the information that I sent to the reporter, I didn't do that through hate-colored glasses, thank you. And what does Kouris contacts with Soros in the past have to do with anything? It doesn't make McEwen a better business-man. I still think his talents are elsewhere.

My actions of sending some factual information about Amiga Incs past were neither driven by ignorance nor hate. They were driven by the will to help the reporter during his investigations and supply him with facts that would have required a lot of digging. I have done this in the past too when a big newspaper here wrote a report about retro gaming and the Amiga. With my information, they even wrote a follow up and included pictures of a user meeting!
