Atari/Commodore hybrid, was Re: General religious wars (was Re: Editor religious wars)

You must be going by RJ Mical's misinformation. Jack Tramiel had nothing to do with the Amiga, that was Warner Atari Inc. as Curt mentioned. Tramiel discovered about the previous Warner/Atari Inc./Amiga deal *after* taking over the Atari Inc. assets and forming Atari Corp., when his son Leonard discovered the cashed Warner Atari Inc. check during the project freeze and asset evaluation at the end of July. Commodore had already filed against Shiraz and several other ex-Commodore engineers in early July, getting injunctions against them working on any computers for Jack. Warner still owned the Amiga contract (i.e. it was not part of the deal with Jack) so he got it signed over to him and used it to file a suit against Amiga in mid August as a counter to Commodore. There was never any computer under Jack that was supposed to use Amiga hardware. Marty
