My, friend, if it takes one month, or six months, regardless of what it takes, the good folks at apple know how long it takes.
If they need to order something in January to make it in June....so be it. They know their business they do their business, so *I* as a consumer can go to the apple store, place my purchase and receive my equipment.
Maybe someday Genesi will learn their business, so they aren't dumbfounded and surprised that a check has to clear....(assuming you are in any way correct).
That way, they can tell they can order their parts and make their boards and have them ready to sell.
You see, if Genesi knew they wouldn't have any boards by now, they could have told their customers such, and no one would be disappointed.
This is really more ridiculous apologies for mismanagement.......
Again, I don't know how much we will accomplish with this discussion, but if its really routine business why are you so quick to forgive Genesi for not understanding this routine business.
It's simple math, if it takes 2 months to order, and you need 400 chips in January, then order 400 chips back in October.
If those chips don't exist, because its just that cutting edge, tell your customers, heck I just ordered them today and it takes at least two months....
Don't tell people its about ready, and sell boards, and then make up ridiculous excuses later.......
