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.

there 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 comments is not professional.


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.

Believe it or not your own bitter comments on another user`s work are not professional, and do not contribute towards, help, moral support or even a healthy debate. So I dont seem to get what are your intentions on diminishing the effort of others.
Perhaps if you want to compete on a certain niche market (which certainly is really small), you should do it on service, quality, features and price, but certainly not taking credit out of anyone. That doesnt speak very well in the eyes of others, as an image of a small company/entrepreneur. But then that is professionally speaking. Personally speaking you are always entitled to do  as you please.

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 :)




but it does not  give you the right to call me a TWAT

The phrase "TWAT" comes to mind.



you call me a TWAT due-to my above posting and has nothing to do with any other posting.

I have to say, I bought one card from Stan, and he upgraded another card for me.
He was polite, helpful and thoroughly professional throughout the whole experience.

Delshay, your attitude on this thread portrays someone who has an axe to grind and personally, I would probably have decided to not trade with you had you been offering a similar service based on that fact.

You may have extra special secret knowledge and that may have been hard earned, but it's not going to do you any good if no one is willing to pay you for that knowledge.

After getting some excellent help here from www.amiga.org in setting up my Amiga 1200 rack I am disappointed to see such bickering.
 
I know IT professionals at times, like to keep some information to themselves because they feel it makes them feel important and superior to lesser IT professionals and if they give out their knowledge they feel they could be made redundant.
 
Having someone come on to the forums asking for help and to have someone reply "Well I know what is wrong, but I am not going to help you" makes me wonder why this member posted.
 
I take my hat off to those that have helped me immensely with my Amiga setup (some even taking the time to post disks for me, email me files, etc), it is a shame some other members are not such forthcoming with information and like to rub others community members nose's in their lack of knowledge.

you first need to identify the problem with the modifcation ( yes i do know the answer ) someone sooner or later will post whats wrong.

some calling me a TWAT was direct.... why is no one commenting on this,perhaps some of you are sticking up for him.

You said you knew the answer, I don't think anyone has posted the answer (yet), so why don't you tell us what the issue is and then we'll all be wiser.

i can change any componet so im not limited.

What about the CPLDs? Do you have spares of those? If yes, are they parts you've salvaged from other dead boards or just new parts? If the latter, how will you program them?

I'd be interested to have a separate chat with you if you have access to the necessary code to program the devices with.  Assuming you'll share the information, that is.
