Phase 5 Digital Products comeback?

Good find! There's a few other pictures on their page, including one of an (albeit small) office. Guess we'll see!

I remember dealing with him when I sent my BPPC for repair under warranty...

Did you get it back?  I think is the important question.  :lol:

Seems like folks would rather just bicker about the same old nonsense on this thread, but if anyone still following is actually interested in the Phase 5 "comeback", here's a screenshot of a couple interesting comments posted recently on their Facebook page (for the benefit of people who don't have FB):

Where on earth will they source 060 chips from?

China?

:laughing:

I'm calling BS on this.  If this was real, then why take the time to white out any readable text and darken the image?  I've seen more believable images of Big Foot.  And these accelerators need to be stuffed into 1.5 meter long boxes?

Or you could, you know, just go on Facebook, where there's a lot more pictures and info.  :lol:  I dunno, maybe those are 2060's in the boxes?

Fingers crossed, we're getting a lot more info out of this company than we did other vapor products over the years!

And why bother when I can buy a Vampire for a reasonable price that will run circles around any stock 680x0 CPU and compete quite nicely with some PPC CPUs?

As has already been mentioned 9837593475 times, there's no Vampire accelerators available for A1200's or A4000's, which is the target market for these new cards (plus the 2060's, which would be welcome considering how many A2000's still show up on ebay).

And if this new Phase 5 was legit, then why not actually have a real web site with pricing and other relevant info instead of just a dead-end homepage with a logo and an address?  Why all the secrecy?

If you want to see their web site done sooner, why not volunteer your services to help create it?  :laughing:

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'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:
