AMIGA, Inc. hat sich vor kurzem mit einem offenen Brief an die AMIGA- Anwender gewandt, in dem angebliche technische Details des neuen AMIGA- Systems, die das Macintosh-Magazin MacWeek veröffentlicht hat, als vollkommen falsch zurückgewiesen werden:
»An Open Letter to the Amiga Community - October 29, 1998
The recent article in MacWeek concerning the Gateway/Amiga computer is completely false.
While entertaining reading there is no truth to the story.
| I am sure that we will all look forward to the next story from another non- |
| Amiga publication, as they try to get it right. |
Thank you again for your support.

In dem betreffenden Artikel der MacWeek hieß es beispielsweise, der neue AMIGA solle mit einem G3-PPC-Prozessor ausgeliefert werden und einen Macintosh-Emulator enthalten.
In einem Newsgroup-Posting spielt Fleecy Moss im selben Zusammenhang auf den neuen Consumer-Rechner von Apple, den iMac, an:
»Thu, 29 Oct 1998 08:12:36 comp.sys.amiga.misc Mac the knife? Mac the Naff more like... fleecy@netreach.net fleecy moss at Black Sheep Enterprises
For those concerned about the recent Mac the Naff article describing LazyRus, the new snoozy walrus rumoured to be breeding up in the flat, flat lands of South Dakota, please rest assured that this story is about as factual as a Milosevic peace accord.
We would never present the Amiga community with something so ordinary.
Whilst Apple and all their little pips may be happy with an average machine stored in a translucent blue potty, we are set to rewrite the manifesto for the digital information revolution.
...unfortunately, as with most good things, it takes time.«
