and here we have the eternal pessimist  :roll:


Sadly no, probably an eternal realist. How many working PPC cards are in the wild? How many of those aren't mothballed? How many owners who actually own and use PPC cards will want it opposed to free solutions like MorphOS? Low hundreds sound realistic. I've heard guesses of low 10s (maybe 20-50) worldwide. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS.That is probably too low, but 100-300 could be close.

Hyperion and ACube were, however, pleasantly surprised with the actual demand. The announcement on the 30th said that the number of orders had been twice what they expected. Maybe their sales teams are a bunch of pessimists, err, realists too.


Hey that is great, but what number where they starting from? What were their expectations?
