It was in mac week here in america too.  I believe the company name is 
Utilities Unlimited International.  You can find adds for their products in 
amiga magazines.  They make the "Emplant Board," a mac/pc/sega genesis emulator
for the amiga.  He has a good/bad reputation among amiga users.  RUMOR (read
total hearsay) says that he tends to boast about his product and sell it before
it is ready for release.  His mac emulator is supposed to run flawlessly on
an amiga ... now.  For the first year after its release people kept having to
get replacement boards because all the bugs wern't worked out of the system
yet.  People complained that he was using his customers as beta testers.  His
board in an amiga with an 040 processor can supposedly run as well or slightly
better than a quadra with the same processor.  He is supposed to have great 
products ... once he ever releses them.

If you read mac week from about a month later, mac the knife writes that
the fellow stoped advertising his product and would not discuss it with
anyone.  He speculated that the fellow's product was getting bought by
another company (apple, ibm, or insignia).  No one has heard from him since
on the program.  A real pity in my opinion.
