Unsuccessful attempt to install 604e@350MHz onto Blizzard PPC

[tone007]

yes i can i have one here already working which i use as a test card done from scratch.

this does not include my other cards which is the fastest Blizzard card in the word,it will match a Cyberstorm 200Mhz. iv already posted benchmark it`s also the first classic amiga to hit 83Mhz bus.

I believe you can do it, I just don't think there are enough cards in the entire world waiting to be upgraded to make anywhere near enough money to live on.

In other words, that's a nice little party trick you can do, by all means keep your secret.

it makes no difference if you pay or it`s free theres was no call for that remark.

Clearly it does make a difference as you specifically cited the fact that you'd given them to him gratis. I doubt very much you would have done so had he bought them off you.

he posted then signs out.

Oh noes! Someone didn't stay online to wait for your response!

How very dare he do other things! Who does he think he is?!

I personally don't know or care if you're planning on offering some kind of PPC upgrade/repair program to owners of said cards. But apparently having the answers to a question of why something didn't work and waxing lyrical about how you can do it and know where it's all gone wrong does come off as pretty poor. So I'm pretty much in agreement with the assessment that alexh made.

If you know, either tell the guy why or keep quiet about it.

I'm not sure if you realize just how arrogant bitter and twisted you sound, not cool.

so if i choose to keep my mouth shut im in the wrong.

..but you didn't!  You went "neener neener, I know something but I won't tell!"

Kind of funny how important you think those few PPC cards are.

[delshay]

..as if you can make a living upgrading Amiga PPC cards...

i can change any componet so im not limited.

You are limited, you just dont know it.

[Crom00]

You are limited, you just dont know it.

While we're on the subject of technological marvels. I saw an AmiJoe card once at MacWorld in NYC years ago. They were happy to talk to an Amiga user and the floor Demo Frauline was HOT!

Can't we all just get along, but seriously isn't this supposed to be a place to come for assistance and advice.

i agree,but it seems there are a few users that think im wrong for not opening my mouth.

if your going to do somthing its a good idea to read the docs first for better understanding of what your doing.

[alexh]

you having a go at me after i sent you those free CPU`s.

But what you said was pretty nasty you gotta admit. "I know what's wrong and I'm not going to tell you. Na, Na!" FFS mate we are not 10 years old anymore

perhaps you can explain why the 604e does not work?

Nope. And I always thought you did know. You are an intelligent, knowledgable, great Amiga user. It's just I hate it when people don't give away their knowledge freely without any thought of return.

We had people at our company who also who wanted to keep their knowledge to themselves to give them an edge over others. We've made them all redundant! Their recommendation letters effectively read "Does not play well with others".

Ladies and gentlemen: the amiga community!

No, thats the attitude of the BSD or Linux community.

hold the phone.  there are people out there that spend time and money on doing certain things and yes to have a edge over others for a better future and because thier wont hand over information their given the sack.

if your are a company then you work as a team,but if it private then it does not have to be shared.

their only doing whats best for them at the time,but others will profit from it. ie the end user.

YOU have jump in with your first post and call me a TWAT im not being funny but i will give you the sack as your comment is not professional.

pmsl!!!

[Philophus]

This is obsolete hardware and this is not a company with groundbreaking technilogical hardware....I'm with AlexH on this one.

Delshay, I dont think its wrong to try and make a living out of repairing PPC Cards. And if you dont want to share that information, thats fine.

But then publicly thumbing your nose at someone because you know something they dont, well thats plain rude.

I hate to burst people's bubbles here but the Amiga as a platform is a niche one at best now. And if we dont want that to disappear any further, we have to help each other out.

Stachu is providing a service to the remaining members that have PPC cards and he seems quite honest in his dealings. I for one, applaud him for that.
