Vampire going into high end production
« on: March 15, 2017, 11:53:16 PM »
Majsta has on his site that they are hiring production company to produce cards.
These guys, Kipper, Majsta and others really have put a lot on themselves to make this happen.

Amazing news! Classic Amigas just got a massive shot in the arm! Exciting days and fair play to Majsta for reconsidering scaling up operations.

It would seem this would move that along faster too.

I would think so too. I'm just anxious for some news. :)

Hopefully Majsta is doing okay.  The tone of the post was a little concerning.

There are so few with the capability to keep the community running, and they shoulder the responsibiltiy.

That project is limited by 150-pin trapdoor connectors not mass production concerns. Trust C= to produce a custom bodge of a connector to screw us over from beyond the grave!

The connector supply problem was solved a while ago, or so I read.

It was production of the A600, A500 Vampire 2s that was the first priority. Now if their production will be increased, we're closer to the A1200 version. :D

His website won't even allow registration without invitation.

Which reinforces my opinion that this is being run like a kid's clubhouse.

the guy is doing things, with an amazing motivation and endurance. he and gunnar have probably delivered more that anyone else within last years, and there is more to come. all you have ever done was talking big. considering this, your opinion doesnt count a dime.

Only at the Apollo page.Express interest and they will contact you when available.

Somehow I had shown interest in both models. Last week Kipper contacted me to that they were shipping V600s.

Here is partially what was emailed me:
I Have pretty well  all of batch 2 and 3 ready for mailing and i want to try to get them  mailed ASAP. Pricing of the V600 is $269 USD (250 euro) please make  payment in USD.

if  you wish to cancel your order you can now withdraw interest by checking  the order page and entering your email address, and let me know also

To continue the ordering process ;........

Unfortunately I want the 500 version but appears that will come soon.

Right...I was in business when many of you were children.
If you want to continue to act like children, that is your decision.

But the business model is asinine.
