He does make good products, glad he does what he does.
On that note, i just destroyed his Aca 500+ in my Amiga 1000
He recommends not to do, and I put it in backwards or upside down. One is good and one is bad, not sure in my haste after reinserting.

Don’t feel too good about myself right now.

Jens announced today that he cannot announce anything now, since a couple of features are patent pending or something.

If it's patent pending then there should be no problem talking about it, it would only cause him a problem if he talked about something before filing the patent.

He might be worried about the patent being rejected, I wonder what he would do in that case. The patent is only of value if someone wants to copy the idea, and he has all the left over chips. So I'm not sure what value he sees in going through a patent application.

Of course if it's a patent for something other than hooking up old AGA chips to modern RAM, then it might have some value elsewhere. But he could still talk about the other parts.

Oooh, that sucks.   :(

Outside the potential of accidentally plugging the board in wrong, are there any other reasons why he recommends not using the ACA500 with the A1000?

Something about timing signals. For most, that is why you may have to turn off/on a few times to get it to boot.

Do you have a direct link to this statement?
If so, would you be so kind as to provide it?
