Five weeks of discussions and negotiations between the two leading UK
Amiga licenceware companies 5th Dimension and F1 has culminted in the
buyout of F1 by Phil Wilkinson of 5th Dimension.
From the 1st August 1997 F1Licenceware will be officially taken over by 5DSoftware. The new company will be named F1 Software and based in Goldthorpe South Yorkshire, the home of 5th Dimension. The exclusive Amiga ranges produced by each company will for the moment be kept separate, but means that the F1 Software range will total over 200 programs including classics like the BlackDawn series, Relics of Deldroneye, Hilt II, and Disk Mag Creator. The Amos Compiler will also still be available, as well as many new projects still in development.
At F1 Software we support the Amiga 100% and will continue to do so for many years. Our American distributor is receiving a lot of customer interest, proving that the Amiga still as a good user base in the States. As software distributors ourselves for over three years, we know the F1 range well and are determined to build on the companies pass success.
I feel that a whole new chapter in the Amiga`s story is just beginning, the future as not looked this bright in over two years and I plan to put F1 Software firmly on the map and keep it there.
