Someone's assesment (not me) of MikeB in early 2004, the second paragraph, first sentence is interesting:

Sound familiar to how he acts today?

 

LMAO... how in the world did you find that?

I guess google. That's a hate filled board, they disliked me especially because I tried to be friends with various different managers from different companies (which they viewed as their arch enemies).

This board is used mostly by people who support an alternative operating system similar to AmigaOS4 called MorphOS (and an immature open source variant called AROS). I kept out of the Amiga vs Hyperion battles as I feared of what would happen and what now happens to be the current situation (legal disputes holding back the potential of the product).

There are a lot people posting there with hurt egos, for example Amiga/Hyperion have gone through difficult financial times being unable to pay employees at times. These people at the time were well paid by another company (forerunner of Genesi) and they made fun of AmigaOS4 developers and involved companies all of the time and of course claiming AmigaOS4.0 would never be released (of course Amiga OS4.1 has recently been released).

This until their employing company bankrupted and just before that moved all assets to a new company and they weren't paid for big amounts of overdue payments as well (they were repeatably told everything will be fine, next week and such, continue your work). MorphOS then turned in a (more underground) community project, AmigaOS4 continues to move forward as a commercial project, with the aim to mature the system enough to make it eventually commercially viable (but they are still in the R&D investment phase).
