seconded wholeheartedly!!! I, too, would buy some shares of such a corporation, let's say at least a hundred dollars worth. Let's see – there are about 4 million Amiga's out there – if every owner would on average buy shares for 50 dollars for each Amiga owned that would be 200 million dollars, and I wouldn't say 50 dollars is THAT much even for us socially deprived Amigans… ;^) And in the right hands, this sort of money could really do wonders for the survival (or rebirth?) of our beloved Amiga. // Chris coming in from Germany \X/ still on AutoPilot 1.061….

$50 is close to the minimum for most brokarage fees. So $50 * 4 million users = about $0. — Dale L. Larson, Intangible Assets Manufacturing

OK. If every Amiga owner sends me $50, I'll be happy to try to buy the Amiga. I'm sure I can convince Dave to help me run the company. If I'm unsuccessful for some reason, I'll just use the money to relocate to Jamaica (I don't like the Bahamas). — Dale L. Larson, Intangible Assets Manufacturing

Lets see Purchase 1 share at $50 on E'Trade with a minimum fee of $35. Each user would have to spend $85 per share. – Woops 🙂 :: How's my DRIVING – 100036,174 – ON AUTOPILOT :: :: WES TATTERS, BRIZ 31, AUSTRALIA ::

So you kick your $50 into a joint stock-purchase fund and everyone makes one buy.

Ron, hmmm…, the Commodore Owners Mutual Fund? That might have some promise, although too late if the Samsung rumors are anything to go by. The Four Seasons of Southern California: Fire, Flood, Earthquake, and Riot.
