I'm not going to make a habit of form-lettering people. But since I've
been out of the action for a week, I thought a quick status-report might
be appreciated.
Where Things Stand 7-10-96
As some of you know, I've been on vacation for the better part of the
past week, so I've missed a lot of excitement and haven't been responding
to mail and news outbreaks. So here's an encapsulated version of the
answers to the burning questions of the hour...
Q1. Does VIScorp own the Amiga yet?
A1. Not yet. The sale has been agreed to by VIScorp CEO Bill Buck and
Escom CEO Helmut Jost, but the agreement is undergoing final review by
the boards of directors of both companies. When this can be completed,
VIScorp will own the Amiga.
Q2. Just where do things stand between VIScorp and Escom now that Escom's
financial situation is changing?
A2. VIScorp's intentions remain unchanged. There is still an agreement
in place to purchase Amiga Technologies and the Amiga intellectual
property from Escom. VIScorp CEO Bill Buck is presently in Germany,
continuing the final negotiations. The terms of payment are being
renegotiated as a result of the Escom announcements, but the deal is
still proceeding. VIScorp is committed to obtaining the Amiga.
Q3. Who can I talk to at VIScorp and get my Amiga-related questions
answered?
A3. General corporate inquiries should be directed to Florine Radulovic,
Director of Communications at VIScorp. Ms. Radulovic is reachable at
fradulovic@aol.com. For Amiga-specific questions, you can contact the
following VIScorp staff members:
For technical and development questions, contact Eric Laffont at
elaffont@pratique.fr.
For questions and proposals involving new business with VIScorp, contact
Al Duncan, c/o Florine Radulovic at fradulovic@aol.com.
