I somehow think you just don't (want to) get it:
Spider-users had the chance to register for quite a long time.
Chris made it clear that he wouldn't support the Spider forever.
Chris does make it clear that Poseidon can't be registered for the Spider anymore.
Elbox is still selling Spiders without telling their costumers that it can't be made useable.
Oh, I get it. However, the Spider is still available for sale and all the divers necessary for it already exist. Chris had just picked on the Spider to stop support for "personal issues". Why would anybody want to support Chris stack when there's always a chance that he'll have more "personal issues" with another company?
I agree (from looking at the site) that Elbox should make a note that CH is discriminating against their customers as it is an important fact.
It's like buying a "new" Amiga advertised as render-machine and than complaining at Maxon that the newest version of Cinema4D doesn't work on it ......
Not quite. The Spider used to work and there's no reason why it shouldn't continue to work with CH's stack other than CH himself. Nobody is asking him to write any drivers for it, but just accept money and send out a key file.
A small as this community is, I don't understand why people are putting personal feelings in the way of business (and I'm not just talking about USB here).
