- A couple weeks ago Axiom sent me some junk mail
- about getting an upgrade from Pixel 3D 2 to the
- current Pixel 3D Pro.
-
- I believe the policy of Axiom is that they will
- develop no new Amiga software, but they're
- still more than happy to sell their existing
- products.
-
- Amiga product tech support at ASDG last month
- assured me that there would be updates to
- ADPro and MorphPlus shortly. (I know "shortly"
- is a very relative statement.)
-
- ASDG/Elastic Reality has reduced the development
- effort of their Amiga programs, but there still
- will be updates and Amiga Tech Support (while it
- is now available only 3 hours in mid-day) still
- exists. (There was a post on a newsgroup a couple
- weeks ago where ASDG was trying to unload a lot
- of their Amiga hardware -- at fairly unreasonable
- prices.)
-
- ASDG/ER Amiga Tech Support (while it *does* exist)
- is now extremely pathetic. I called and talked to
- someone namesd Curtis about a problem I had with
- MorphPlus. I had previously mailed a set of files
- to them. Curtis said he'd look into it and email
- me right back whether or not they got the files.
- Over the past couple weeks I've tried to call
- Curtis, but he's never "available" and I've sent
- email, but I never get any sort of response. If
- I was making a living with their software I'd be
- really pissed off.
-
- So, I'm beginning to consider getting ImageFX.
-
- In any case, neither company is out of business or
- has *completely* abandoned the Amiga market, so
- considering their products as PD stuff is still
- theft.
