@Elbox

Could you please extend the free P&P a little so that I can take advantage of it when I order my SharkPPC and Dragon?

When I saw the news item title 'Christmas gift from Elbox' I thought it was going to be some sort of release announcemnt and got quite excited.

wow :-(

some very encouraging feedbacks here!

I would like to see the faces of some "supporters" here and there (not all fortunately), if some day will be published the news: "Elbox has closed with the Amiga market, due . . ." :-(

Due to what?  Due to reprehensible business practices?  Due to building their "future" on vaporware?  C'mon, tell us.  Due to what?

The last time Elbox got some encouragment, they put illegal code in their drivers to cause damage to hard drives.

The best christmas present Elbox can give the Amiga community is to shutdown and call it a day. They do not deserve our custom and certainly should not get our support/praise.

Due to being a bunch of dirty lying trojan writing w@nkers who offer next to piss all, apart from nonsense "shark" updates and other updates of magical products what do not exist.

That's a terrible thing to say.  The Amiga would be in a much worse position today if Elbox didn't exist.  Nobody else makes Amiga hardware.

They have made mistakes, sure, and I wish they wouldn't make premature hardware announcements (but then, it seems everybody in connection with the Amiga likes to make premature announcements so  we can't really single out Elbox in this regard).

Elbox has made and is almost unique in still making damn good hardware in a very difficult and small market.

I wish they release the Shark, I would probably buy it (or the first new PPC card for the A4000 for that matter), it's just that I'm getting tired of waiting.
Merry Christmas to Elbox too :-D :pint:

yes Jose, i understand the disappointment but such comments, are not useful anyway (not from you directly).

If at every Elbox News, we should recall the past problems (that i prefer to forget, despite what is MY point of view...see hacking commercial drivers) we will never achieve anything good.

I'm not the best Elbox client (PowerTower only here) but i've always (and still) appreciated the great job done by Elbox along all theese years.

Happy XMas to all involved :-)
