Why is everyone attacking Vox when he is only complaining about a machine that "is not fit for purpose", in Britain it is illegal to sell goods that are not fit for purpose, by attacking Vox you are saying "we do not care about the quality of goods offered to the Amiga community" and therefore you cannot complain if other products are offered in a similarly unfinished state.
You will get the products you deserve.

If you are selling a car that does not drive or a TV-Set that cannot show something than it is of course illegal. But his X1000 booted and worked, just that his expectations were higher. Partly drivers for onboard hardware missing so "solved" by using additional hardware. All known (even if you are not a AmigaOS fan) just by reading forums. And much too expensive of course and 4.2. propably far away. But all known to everyone.

So it is computer that is booting and running software. In this sense it "fits the purpose". No law can stop you wasting money on overprized goods if you insist on it.

I think that too (that they are more concentrating on Cyrrus than on update for the existing users) because they can there sell more (or propably more easily) new licenses for Cyrrus based on Update 6 than finishing 4.2. first (with adding Gallium/SMP what propably is a lot more difficult to add than writing some drivers for a new hardware). I think I can remember Solie somewhere (I believe Q&A session) mentioning Update 7.

But even if... noone guaranteed SMP and Gallium, propably not even 4.2. update. Perhaps a X1000 owner can correct me there and say if it is mentioned somewhere in the contract. If not it is not in and Vox has no chance when he goes to court because of it.

So I say they have left all X1000 users behind. I am designing a class suit that all X1000 users can join.

You forgot the second part of my posting. Something that is not in a contract is not in. You can only sue them for things that were in contract but not delivered. You propably buyed it from Amigakit. After ordering and payment they should have sent you a contract (or similar) where all was in what you bought and paid. No mentioning of something means not in contract and not in contract means you cannot sue them for it.

[OlafS3]

Are you sure about that?
I'm not talking about chances to win, but lawyer fees etc...

You would be best to simply sell your X1000 to recoup the costs.

+1

Sell the X1000, pay back most of your debts and buy something based on MorphOS or AROS or one of the cheaper AmigaOS solutions.

they have not sent some sort of order confirmation after ordering? And there should be a receipt with everything in and some sort of terms and conditions. Nothing? That is how I know it here when buying something online.

And when you buy something by Fax or Telephone you normally get a order confirmation too and then a receipt where all is in what you bought (included in the delivery).
