Re: Poll, new accelerator for A500/A600.

A few moons ago, there was a news item on this site;

http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=45466

He asked for pre-orders to check out the current demand for such an accelerator. The designs used an 030 rather then the 020, and this was another production run of the A600 version of the Apollo, a tried and tested, proven accelerator.  The price was also very attractive, at EU150, you would pay more for a second hand one on e-bay.

Now, considering the positive response to this thread, and considering that re-inventing the wheel (and killing a few A600s along the way) dosen't make a lot of sense to me, how about lobbying this guy to produce the blessed accelerators?  

Judging from this thread, I think he would gather his pre-orders easily, if all those who pitched their support keep their word. For me, this would be the ideal upgrade, since the A600 realisticaly, couldn't be pushed much further

So, any takers??  Can we contact redromula and ask him nicely to resurrect the project, if possible?
