Amazing! New A500+ kit available at A1k!

I have two of these kits on the way to build and plan to document the entire process of the build. Im pretty excited about it.

This isn't definite.  My German isn't the greatest since I haven't spoken it in 20 years, but, the sentiment there is that only a1k.org users will be allowed to purchase them, as of this evening.  I have had an account there for a few months now, but, I'm not thinking I will qualify.

Whether or not I would consider purchasing one, this kind of attitude makes me really, really angry. :madashell: :madashell: :madashell:

I am neutral in the matter.  Some of them were not too happy with EAB users complaining in their companion thread to this one that "they had to register and become a member on a1k in order to view the pictures and thread."  If that's their rules, one must abide. Heck, back in the day, you couldn't view a BBS without registering and being validated.  I don't see this as much different.  It is aprivate enterprise, after all.

Others on a1k, especially the developers, were amazed and seemed pleased by the amount of interest that international users had in the project and the demand for orders.  Personally, I am thrilled by that.
