Cyberstorm G3/G4, Did you preorder one?
« on: August 26, 2003, 09:45:47 AM »
In the latest poll one pick is the Phase 5 G3/G4 boards. Did any of you preorder when you could? If so what ever happened to all that money? I've been searching and cant seem to find anything on what they ever used the money for.

I ordered one, but fortunately, I ordered through Blittersoft, who didn't take my money but would have done once the product was shipping.

What is the point of replying if you didn't buy one?  :-?

Hmm, not sure about that, but Elbox are selling the Shark G3/G4 boards, I think when OS4 is released  :-)

Check 'em out at Elbox.com
I like Amigas

Yep, I did, back in the days when I trusted people. I guess my $150 (?) helped to keep Phase 5 afloat for a few seconds.

Eh? Ralph used to work at Phase 5 as an engineer, that's all. He didn't pocket money for pre-orders, and it certainly wasn't used to fund MorphOS development.

 You don't see Commodore's debtor's harassing Dave Haynie about money owed to them when Commodore went bankrupt do you?

But somehow if it's Phase 5 it's ok to go making false claims...

Hey Lando, let's go harrass ARM regarding the preorders of the BoXeR.  After all, Mick Tinker now works for them.
Try blazedmongers new Free Universal Computer kit, available with the GUI toolkit Your Own Universe, the popular IT edition, Extremely Reliable System for embedded work, Enhanced Database development and Wide Area Development system for telecommuting.

Like it is OK to do it to some other Amiga firm right ? (It goes both ways)

-edit-
-People make false claims about Amiga inc, live with it
-People make false claims about Genesi, live with it
-People make false claims about C=, live with it
-People make false claims about P5, live with it
-People make false claims about bPlan,, live with it
-People make false claims about your chosen product, live with it
-People like to make false claims, start false rumors, about whatever they want, so what ?! Live with it..
-/edit-



Anyway, didn't Red ask us to try not to go this route in topics ?

As for the topic, I was very tempted to pre-order as I had a CyberstormPPC / CybervisionPPC... (un)fortunatly P5 went belly up taking the money from the pre order to the big fish P5 owned money to :-(

Nice to know he found a job after all that.
