IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

DiscreetFX Partners Announcement

 

Chicago, Illinois - October 19th, 2006


Visual FX company DiscreetFX LLC Inc. and a group of investors have submitted a proposal to Amiga Inc. requesting formal validation of the company's value. DiscreetFX hopes to secure funding to purchase Amiga Inc and it's Intellectual Property within the next year.

Currently DiscreetFX is hard at work completing their documentary titled "Oil Change". Oil Change is a film about the dangers of trans fatty acids in the style of "Super-Size Me". Plans to purchase Amiga Inc would proceed after the completion of the movie which is currently in pre-production.

Ultimately this transaction would depend on Amiga Inc's willingness to sell and price negations. DiscreetFX believes there is tremendous value in the Amiga brand and the Amiga Operating system.

DiscreetFX CEO stated. "Today we primarily develop our visual effects software on NewTek video editing solutions for Windows and Final Cut Studio for Mac OS X. But the Amiga has always held a special place in my heart since I developed my first product for the Amiga Video Toaster on it. I want to help bring the Amiga back to it's former glory in new IT markets."

If an agreement can be reached between Amiga Inc and DiscreetFX, the much speculated return of the Amiga brand could spark a unique, new chapter in the machine's ever fluctuating history.

 

Best regards,

DiscreetFX Partners
