OK Wayne

well now that I've read it.....

comments:  thanks Bill Buck for spending the time to give an interview to our humble community.

Looking for 'well-adjusted' developers? WOW, that describes me exactly....

hehe...ermm, ahem.....cough

Well...haven't had the chance to post as much lately, been busy......

but cannot wait for that PEG II to come out.

And I had 300 dollars in a paypal account to buy a peg1, and yes, as predicted, I waited too long, at least the dealers had already pulled their summer sale ads by the time I attempted to purchase.

Oh well....I'm nothing if not patient....looking forward to september.

Damien, I checked.

I mostly tried to read the english ones, and then I was looking for a betatester or April I.

With a very bad exchange rate from dollars to euro's, 300 dollars doesn't buy the April II board.....

Vesalia had the Pegasos summer sale board listed at 410USD, too much....don't want it.
I assume they are already out of their alotment of betatesters, or have some other reason for pulling their listing of that item, which was previously listed.

Some of the nonenglish sites, like GGS Data, appear to still have stock, but I don't read that language.

Amiga Superbit was similar to vesalia in not listing the April I or betatester configuration.

As I mentioned above, I had 300 dollars in a paypal account, so I didn't have enough to buy any board that I could actually buy...that should have gotten a betatester, maybe an April I.

But...I had initially done this in an attempt to buy a betatester board from vesalia.....

anway, didn't mean to suggest that no one could buy a board, but I am telling you, I've spent about 10 times the effort it normally takes to give someone my money, and I'm just not going to try that hard.

Still looking forward to september, and hopefully wider distribution and more normalized sales channels.....and who knows, I will probably even lay down some extra cash for a peg 2.
