>I mean look at ACK's "product"

ACK's accelerators were announced as coming out first quarter 2005 -- they've still got two months until they're late.

Although . . . we were promised pictures.

A lot of people don't read PMs -- I've e-mailed him with questions, and got a very quick, very detailed response.

I was kidding about the picture thing -- lighten up!

The PPC chip being using in the "trap door" version was designed for embedded systems (basically a 603e) and runs very cool. I don't think heat will be all that big a problem ("think" being the operative word here! ;-))

Hadn't heard that (but then I don't do the IRC thing). I'm assuming that price doesn't include OS4 (it would be cool if it DID, though!)

Geez, Louise!

The Dragon was announced as coming out at the end of January -- it's not even late yet! ("Almost", though -- maybe they were overly "optimistic" on the time-frame).

The ACK isn't even supposed to be out yet! Q1 2005 means sometime between January 1, 2005 and March 31, 2005.

Like I said -- that would be cool if it turns out to be correct!
