God, that is awful to hear, however expected it may have been.
Unfortuatly, I came to the realization a while ago that the Amiga was
just NOT a viable platform anymore. When I heard that LW was to be
brought to the IBM, I jumped. Never looked back. Certainly I've missed
the Amiga OS (dealing with the limitations of Windows - ugh), but on the
whole, the quality, quantity, and AVAILABILITY of software has kept me
very occupied.
NewTek strikes another death knell for the Amiga.
