From the wording of the email it sounds like they are only refunding those who bought an A1 or who will buy an ACK board so Kronos was probably wise to miss out on the party packs :-)

I wonder if KennyR will be cashing in his $50 voucher against a nice new ACK system :roll:

BTW I wonder what happened with the guy that won the Club Amiga competition (Mentioned in the photo gallery).  Did he ever get his A1?  If not, will he now get an ACK board?  I wonder if he still even cares.

Hmmn, that's a lot of wondering.

@itix

That would have been sensible considering they were probably never going to send one, but John Hindle is apparently quite real.

I agree that Open source is really the only viable option for a hobby platform.  However, AROS* simply isn't ready yet and there is a lot of software missing (And I'm not talking OpenOffice/FireFox here).  Things are most certainly improving, but there is still some way to go.

Having said all that there is a possibility that there might be an interesting AROS-related development later on in the year.
