Agreed, having re-read the statement it is really unprofessional to be honest!
It sounds like Amigakit have put their foot down regarding the next shipment of boards and the fact other markets need to be supplied first and Amiga on the Lake have just thrown there teddies out of the pram!
Amigakit have in my opinion given the US market exclusive first access to this product and this is how they are rewarded!
I can't speak for the behind the scene dealings but it sounds like ingratitude to me.
SO...exactly WHAT do YOU think you know about business or being a professional?
I have no idea what happened, but this guy invested money in this, AND in order to sustain a retail business, you have to make a profit, WHICH involves sales AND have product to sell.
Aeon and AmigaKit have always been run like hobbies, rather than professional businesses.
"We have the product..but we're not selling it yet", "We are selling the product, be not in your region yet....unless you call us, then
maybe we'll work out a special deal
just for you", "OS4.2 is irrelevant...even IF you WERE promised a copy when available (
whenever that small miracle occurs)", "Tabors FPU isn't important (even IF the ENTIRE base of your software is incompatible with it"...
Need I go on?
I have had my own issues with the company when they sold me an Amiga to PS2 mouse adapter that simply
does not work. AND they still continue to sell this device.
I'd still like to obtain a P5040 based X5000, but honestly, these guys are about as lousy at marketing as the Stanley brothers were.
So you want to throw around the word "professional"?
Better not use it in the Amiga arena, because everyone there ought to be wearing red clown noses, and not as part of a fund raising event.
