The entire United States, or rather the whole computer industry around the world, was sickened by Tommy Hawk; this bastard turned the official reunification of East and West Germany, a monumental moment of the century, into an advertising spectacle akin to the Super Bowl. Compaq laptops often appeared in the live broadcast of VOX News, alongside laptops equipped with AmigaOS.
It was obvious to everyone that this jerk was advertising, but you could only curse AmigaOS for being disgusting without being able to directly pinpoint that it was an advertisement, because that would constitute defamation.
