Now he is being paid directly by the liquidators. Hopefully, soon, he will be employed by someone else. His name is Petro Tyschtschenko, and he is the last employee of Amiga Technologies in the head office at Bensheim. He doesn't even share an office with anyone since the only other two employees at Amiga Technologies are based at the warehousing facility in Braunschweig. Herr Tyschtchenko is forced to perform all the duties, both mundane and exciting, required to keep a business, even a business in liquidation, running. He personally answers all calls since he is also Amiga Technologies switchboard operator and sells machines to companies _ _ like Silica and Costco in this country. It is down to Petro Tyschtchenko that any new Amigas still available in the UK are here at all. But what does he think will happen to the Amiga? Is it just too late? "THE AMIGA IS NOT DEAD! The Amiga is just tired, but it's looking to the FUTURE! Two bankruptcies in two years, has made it tired. It is tough and only the Amiga could have had the energy to survive. No other computer ever has such life! It is a miracle. Since the beginning I have been sure that AMIGA will never die because it's a cult computer with the best technology. "My staff (2), myself (1), and the Amiga community (millions) are keeping Amiga alive. Day by day, since 15th of July 96 (the day Escom went bankrupt). It's a hard job, but it's a job that we love to do." Herr Tyschtschenko is also optimistic about buyers for the company, though he replied rather cryptically when asked who these potential purchasers might be: "Some are already gone with the wind, others are playing the game of the never ending story, some are looking only for profit, some would like to pick only the golden nuggets, some have illusions only - I know them all... Myself? I will never give up, I am working on a solution to bring Amiga forward. Amiga is waiting for the future, and there is a future! Please be aware that to buy Amiga, the intellectual property, the trademark and the inventory is a small part... investment in the technology is the main part, that is the future, that's what the Amiga is waiting for. Amiga is prepared for the future, grab the advantage!" "...investment in the technology... that is the future, that's what the Amiga is waiting for. The Amiga is prepared for the future, grab the advantage!" to go towards wages, taxes, and other admin costs. So, to recoup a purchase price of even $ 15M, you are going to have to sell well over 50,000 units, maybe even .100,000 units. That’s a lot of machines. No really, it is. It’s probably more A4000Ts than have ever- been sold. It’s certainly more than Escom sold of any sort of Amiga.
