Hi all, Here is a nice mail I received from Carl at Viscorp, explaining about Optonica etc and my reply.... >Paul, >Sorry to hear about Optonica and your friend. Optonica had not been doing >"a lot of work" (as you put it) for the STB. Bill Buck hired them many >months ago to do some graphics demo and audio conversion work. Nothing >else to my knowledge. >As far as I know (in my role as consulting director of software), they were >paid for what they contracted. Of course, all of this was done through the >main office in Chicago... and I am out of that loop. > Carl >---------- >From: Paul Brown[SMTP:Yoss@froghall.powernet.co.uk] >Sent: Sunday, July 28, 1996 3:38 AM >To: carl@sassenrath.com >Subject: Optonica Limited Hi there Carl, Thankyou for replying so promptly to my mail. I've heard from Optonica and they have clarified the story a little bit and I think my friend was a little over zealous I think losing his job. I did not wish to tarten the good image of Viscorp and indeed the Amiga, but it was a little worrying when I was told about it. Anyway I'm sure you have hundreds of mails every day from Amiga users etc, so I'll keep this one short! and basically would like to wish you every success and congratulations on purchasing one of the best Operating Systems I have played around with. In other words 'A wolf in sheeps clothing' and hopefully soon 'A wolf in wolfs clothing!'
