Phase 5 Digital Products comeback?

[psxphill]

How did you come to this assertion?

What was visible from the outside and what was said by those involved.

The question was not about what you have seen or heard, everyone sees and hears the same things but comprehension is subjective. The question was about your intellectual approach. That said, do not answer, we are off topic.

Just out of curiosity, as I might have missed it among all the tripe: for those not on Facebook is there an official website?  Could we possibly have a thread about these developments which does not have a signal-to-noise ratio similar to that of a symphony of five year-olds banging instruments on chairs?

Nothing yet on their web page.

Lets wait and see. I have high hopes of getting a Blizzard 2060 and maybe a 1260
 would even pay close to the price they originally sold for

Kipper is doing the right thing and quitting when it no longer is fun.

When did he say that?

[Oldsmobile_Mike]

When did he say that?

Three weeks ago?  It was posted publicly all over Facebook and other forums.  I know I personally copied & pasted his post into that looong thread on this site about the Vampire accelerators.  You can probably find it there.

I have no idea if this is real or not, but if it is a joke they have put some effort into it.
From the images you can see the print on the PCB, "Blizzard PPC 2 (C) 2017 phase 5 digital products"
This was posted at 22. may, and it says that they should have some major news about this in june.

I wouldn't call it a joke either, but there is a lot of hubris. Blank PCBs aren't that much if you factor in the rest that is needed to manufacture functional cards. He first showed the PCBs in February, not much happened since. We will see what revelations are coming this month.

If they need someone to populate the boards ..they should hit me up..!!

I'm a nobody and know nothing, bought my A500 in the early 90's. Now just bought an A2000 and kitted it with a A2091, hard drive and Apollo 2030 ( it all works too )

All I can say is I am excited there is NEW !!!! kit coming out for my favourite computer.  

I applaud their efforts and truly hope it all comes to fruition.

There is new kit coming out for your Amiga computer on an almost daily basis, but based on the 1000x of posts about this "new" company already, it won't be from these guys. :laughing:

@ Roysters

welcome aboard:drink: honestly all Amiga users want any new company/ individual investing time/ money on our favourite computer/OS to do well in todays economy but the many empty promises from 'some' have left a few of us jaded to say the least

Well I have tried to populate one of those boards (having 2)

but failed due to the fact that those boards totally lacks any ground.

and I guess that's why we never have seen any booting prototype. they simply will not work.

IF Anyone actually missed this!

Owned a cyberstorm mk2 and sold it years ago, phase V used to make the best amiga accelerators.
So i think that was so cool that phase 5 could return but when asked on the facebook page for a video or something showing that this was the real deal the guy just kicked me from the group.

I did miss it so thanks for posting and honestly your findings didn't surprise me at this stage though I still hope that new Phase 5 boards get released for those that didn't get them first time around or for the many that sold them and desperately want them back :-) personally I still have my oriignal Cyberstorm MKIII and absolutely nothing or no one will pry it from my A4000:hammer:
