- VIScorp - Memo 29-June-96
-
- June 19, 1996 - Chicago, IL USA
-
- VISCORP VALUES THE AMIGA
-
- System Improvements
-
- In the months ahead, VIScorp will be making substantial improvements to the
- Amiga system architecture, including both the hardware design and the
- operating system software. These advanced new systems will be developed not
- only for our upcoming Set Top Boxes, but also for future Amiga Desk Top
- Computers. VIScorp is investing considerable resources into engineering these
- improvements. One of the primary objectives of VIScorp's business plan is to
- develop, manufacture, market, and sell Amiga Desk Top Computer Systems.
- Architecture Group
- Many of the above improvements require an in-depth knowledge of specialty
- markets and technologies. Because of this, VIScorp made the decision in May
- 1996 to form an Architectural Design Group consisting of a small number of
- highly qualified Amiga experts. While this group is still in its early
- formation stage, we intend it to oversee and resolve the numerous suggestions
- and enhancements that must be addressed for the long term success of the
- Amiga.
- Technology Licenses
- As stated above, VIScorp will research and develop valuable enhancements to
- the architecture and technology of the Amiga, resulting in a wide range of
- next generation, price competitive computer products. There are, however,
- situations in which it makes sense for VIScorp to license Amiga related
- technology to qualified companies whose business objectives are consistent
- with VIScorp's long range plan. Such agreements may include binary, ROM, and
- documentation licenses for the distribution of Amiga OS upgrades, hardware
- and software system licenses for specialty markets, and possibly source code
- co-development licenses to help expand the Amiga and its feature set into the
- next decade.
- Property Rights Infringement
- It has come to our attention that several companies plan to build their own
- "compatible" or "extended" versions of the Amiga without obtaining the proper
- licensing from VIScorp. These companies will be placing themselves at legal
- risk, because their systems will undoubtedly infringe on Amiga intellectual
- property rights, including copyrights, patents, and trade secrets. In
- addition, we have recently become aware that versions of the Amiga System ROMs
- are being reproduced and distributed without proper licensing. This is a
- violation of international copyright law, and VIScorp will prosecute
- offenders to the full extent of the law. Realize that VIScorp is purchasing
- Amiga Technologies at great expense for ownership of precisely the above
- property rights and considers them a fundamental asset of the company. As
- such, VIScorp intends to aggressively defend its position as the owner of the
- Amiga and its related technologies. Companies that choose to violate the law
- are well advised to consider the easier and less costly path of obtaining a
- license. If you have important comments regarding the above statement, please
- send us email,
- using a subject line of "We Value Amiga". Your mail will be read carefully,
- but please realize that we cannot directly respond to all mail.
