X1000 Nemo Rev. 2 Motherboard in Production

It's always the same clowns on this board who get excited over nothing and post topics that have misleading titles.  The only thing different is that now there's a schematic of X1000 vaporware system posted online......yawn.....Saying that the Rev 2 motherboard is in production because a schematic has been posted is really stretching things at best and misleading at worst.

Trevor already admitted this was a run for the 5 sample boards. Yet he still seems to refer to it as a "production run".

Now, unlike the automobile industry I know of no official measurement to qualify a computer board as a "production run" so lying would also be subjective. However the fact is the news item doesn't state that there are only five boards, and we don't even need to get into the whole history of false announcements A-eon has made in the past. So it's buyer beware.

I'll accuse him of missing every production deadline that's been set.  And I'll accuse him of using misleading language.  A 5-board test run and the release of some schematics does not equal "production".  Production implies quantity in mass and that the product (whatever is is) is ready to go to market.  The X1000 will most likely never be seen in quantities above 50, if at all.  And since when has lying been subjective?  You either tell the truth or you lie.  It's a boolean thing...most computer people understand that.  Are you sure you aren't a politician!

What I mean is that there is no hard quantifiable value in the computer hardware industry that qualifies what "production" means, as opposed to something like the automotive industry. So even if they produce five boards they can call that a production run.

Personally, I think Trevor sank a bunch of money into this debacle and will say pretty much anything to break even - ANYTHING. That would be the businesslike thing to do, and I expect we're going to need a lot of popcorn this year.


Pretty sure but maybe I should run for office just in case!

Totally agree with you in all respects! What seat will you be campaigning for?
