Soft Hut Typhoon cards

[Trev]

@DamageX
This is a Typhoon by DCE 1999, not a new production model - "raises an eyebrow"...
To me : no photos of products (if you did production run, you'd have a sample) no money.

It could be an old picture, or the "new" cards could have been assembled from old PC boards produced by DCE in 1999.

I believe there are two versions of this card one with the scsi connection and the other without.  I suspect that you ordered the not-scsi model.

I think that's going to make a lot of people unhappy. Joe had the SCSI bit listed as an add-on, and I bet a lot of people were thinking they could add SCSI later. He should have sold them as "Typhoon" and "Typhoon with SCSI" with the price reflecting the difference in configuration.

I wasn't/didn't, and I asked Joe for a refund last week, but he hasn't responded. :-/

[Trev]

Joe still hasn't replied to my request for a refund, and no refund has been issued. In fact, he hasn't responded to any of the messages I've sent over the last few weeks. I don't want to sour my relationship with one of the last remaining Amiga dealers by initiating a chargeback, but I also don't like that Joe has been sitting on my $250 for the last two months. If he doesn't have product to ship, that money should be sitting in my interest bearing accounts, not his. :-/

[Trev]

Joe still hasn't responded, so I have no idea what's going on with my order. If he ships me the card, and I don't use it, I'll probably turn it around for what I paid for it.

@Trev

Not sure you still need or want the card, but here is what Joe sent me yesterday.  I'm sure he is going to fill your order next week given that the scsi chips are secured and the boards completed.

I believe Joe is working hard with GVP to deliver this very unique production run.  I have been associated in other retro production runs and believe me it can take a while given most of the work was done by hand.  We will get our boards soon.
