****************************** BEGIN

Hi Julien,

Thanks for your concern. Just to let you know, we are not just another
faceless corporate entity looking to disembowl companies for a profit.
The pricipal people (myself included) involved in VisCorp are
ex-Commodore folks, both managers and engineers. We're the same group
that brought you CDTV.

Believe it or not, there are people in charge of the Amiga that
actually *care* about the technology. What a concept. One of the main
reasons that we considered what some might call a 'dead' platform for
our set-top applications is that there is still a huge, loyal developer
base on tap. We plan on making the best use of available applications
and talent.

Our set-top boxes are architecturally similar to the current Amiga
products so anything we do to promote the current Amiga lines only
helps us in the long run. We intend to continue production of existing
models and we *will* consider the development of new machines.

Our primary purpose for wanting to aquire the technology is to support
it properly, improve the chipsets, and apply the technology in new
markets. Things that the old C= never wanted to do. The Amiga
architecture is key to our own products and we wanted to insure its
future. Watch for announcements in the very near future on our web site
at http://www.vistv.com

We *like* the Amiga and intend to keep up production of the current
models. The vision isn't dead, it's being reborn.

****************************** END

QUand on sait que le Webmaster n'est autre que Carl Sassenrath, ancien pote de
Jay Miner et `responsable' d'un tout petit utilitaire nomme AmigaDOS, je reprends
espoir ....

Et puis, VisCorp avait deja achete la license Amiga des sa mise a disposition.

Aller ! On a retrouve les anciens Dieux de l'Amiga et ils ont rechete le bebe
prodige, moi ca me fait plutot plaisir.

Alors ?

Julien
