I'd take 1 x A4000 version straight away.

MODERATOR  - WE NEED A POLL TO GET THE NUMBERS EASILY ACCESSIBLE.

Glad to see you're still in the game Adam.  Best of luck.  As many have said, showing a working prototype would be a REALLY good move at this point - solidify those waverers who would buy if they were sure it existed.

May I recommend total amiga magazine as a good place to publicise your demonstration?

How about asking Elbox if they have any edge connectors.

 :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

THAT'S what's holding the dragon project up - lack of edge connectors.  It all makes sense now.

Seriously though:
1: Who in the amiga community would want to be totally dependent on Elbox for their business dealings?
2: Why would Elbox supply the competition with needed parts?

Had a good look round the Googleworld for parts - not seeing much in the way of 1.25mm (or 1.27mm) edge connectors, except for PCI and PCI-e production.  I do reckon it may be a custom order (+$$$$$$s).  
Hopefully an ex-employee of Winner/Micronik/Phase 5/DCE/someone might give Adam a hint as to where they used to order them from.  Can't REALLY see Elbox going out of their way to help.

Fair enough, I misread the original post.  I thought he only wanted emailing regarding the edge connectors.
I have now sent an email adding my voice to the chorus.
