I have 3 Vampires and they have run great and I put them through the ringer with almost always on activity. I don't plan on selling them anytime soon. I did break a pin on one but that was my fault and Kipper2k was good enough to fix it for me. He even sold me a TF328 also along with some A500 bits and bobs.

That's not good, either it was broken or something is wrong with other components or software.
So you sold somebody a broken card !?
My Vampire is rock solid and runs great as it should for over a year.
@ PPC

I use test cores and the boards will crash using a test core, that is expected as the beta test cores are by design unstable. As core dev progresses they become more stable and stop crashing.

If I want to go back to a 100% useable core I flash gold 2 or 2.5 they run stable. I have never had to re-flash a public released core on my boards due to instability. I have had to press down on my A600 Vampire to reseat it after the wife knocked over the A600 setup.
