I lost track of who makes what in this thread.  It just cracks me up that you Amiga zealots bash other platforms like crazy and complain about evil business practices, while at the same time you're buying hardware from one company, drivers from someone else, "stacks" or whateverthehell from someone else, and they all seem to fight with each other.  You guys really are pretty desperate to buy stuff in pieces like this.

Reputation, folks...  a company or individual is nothing without reputation.  Precicely why I don't get mixed up in this crappy aftermarket, at least not anymore.  I bought a Subaru because they've been around for decades and make kickass cars.  I bought aftermarket parts for the car because I wanted to make it better.  I found out very quickly that if "they" ship you the wrong swaybar or a bracket doesn't fit... tough -- take it to a machine shop and fix it yourself!

Thus, I don't buy aftermarket parts, anymore, unless they come from a local shop that does a LOT of work and have knowledgeable technicians on site that go through all the installation stages with you ahead of time.  It costs more, but it's worth it.  I learned my lesson the hard way.

This is why I wanted to see Amiga Inc. get on their feet and unify the Amiga market.  Instead, we're still being served crap in pieces.
