This thread is about getting RTG on A1200, not about how terrible the Terrible 1260 is, and how much I want someone to "give me" one for $360 USD or how I am entitled, how people are dicks, and want lifetime support - all things I absolutely did not say. So awful of me to have considered wanting to support something in the community. Just shame on me. Shame, shame, shame. |

"You don't know how to bring people in to support you, google it. Ask. There are storefronts that can make it easy for everyone. You, supporters, everyone."
you doesn't seem to get it: if a person cannot get arsed to search for stuff. there are no interest to get MORE of those demanding time-consuming persons.. if the T1260 can sell over 500 boards with absolutly NO marketing what-so-ever (or atleast a extremly small marketing) it is well enough.. I could w/o problem do a complete E-Commerce system where you could point-n-click order.. even with individual cvhoises of cpu, memsize etc.. but that would also mean MORE work for nothing. your posts here clearly shows why it is an issue.. you believe you are supporting a project with money. but money is just a small part of the deal.. yes. it DOES cost money to develope. but you can clearly read in your posts that you would also be a real time-cosumer. "YOU PAID 320 FOR IT" without thinking of how much of that went to parts, went to cover the time before ythere was a "product" and how much is needed to cover future fixes and improvements.. time you need to be from your family and fix stuff. time that you later maybe want to "make up" for. like going on a small family trip etc.. maybe this also costs.. but no. you PAID 320.. you are entitled... exactly that is what you as a hobbyist NOT want to. you want to help, you want to support. but those "I PAID...:" is the pain in the butt you do not want to have.. questions and patiantly waiting for answers from anyone in a forum etc. THAT is the way.. not "I PAID..." nope.. and that you clearly shown is what you get if you do a storefront etc.. not everyone want costumers.. they want maybe USERS. a clear difference.. |

$150,000 USD total taken in of the 500 or so. And only £500 spent out of pocket on this according to this little post? Nice little racket you're running, even after expenses. Makes one wonder why this Terrible guy would have such disdain for people wanting to give him the $300 at a time. |

Get a grip - you're making yourself look incredibly petty and foolish again. The sooner this thread gets locked/deleted the better. |

Yes, I'm petty and foolish because a long long time ago I wanted support the efforts of those making a 68060. Foolish indeed. |

I think you did that when you provided TF1260 links to Amibay, where upon clicking register one is told "Sorry, registration has been disabled by the administrator."
How am I the bad guy for pointing out the nonsense? How am I the bad guy for wanting to support Amiga community efforts via financial means to keep the efforts going and moving forward? FASCINATING! |

WHERE is it written that only 500 is spent? it is EXTREMLY much more..
logic analyzers, oscillosopes. getting several 1200 machines to test on diffeent revisions, Mediator, PCI cards etc... and many many MANY hundreds of hours of work.. also. 500 boards out. not all have been for the same price.. there are actually boards GIVEN out. even with rev6 060s.. to people involved in the design.. etc.. also.. componentcosts.. time for us builders.. shipping. packing material. damn the list can be made large. you seem to think it is $10 in a board the rest goes into a bankaccount.. sorry no.. just the interest I have paid for the 060s I have sourced for years to be able to have cpus for a 060 card when it came out (like this) have been quite a bunch of money. (YEAH.. I paid them using my creditcard) you sure shows you have no clue.at all.. even if this thread derailed from topic.. it is your threadyou started that also showed how little of clue you have... |

I don't need your support for my hobbies either. Just to be clear, in case you think I do for some bizarre reason. Quote:

Amibay has 26000 registered members, 2500 are active and over 500 visited the site today. Not my problem if the place where several hundred people have bought a TF1260 trouble free is not accessible to you, take that up with many of the moderators who have accounts here on eab. Similarly not my problem if you dont use FB, a place where thousands of amiga enthusiasts share info and products trouble free and projects like TF accelerators have been available for months. I have the distinct feeling you are the sort of person who goes out of their way to make things as difficult as possible for yourself and others and always look for someone else to blame. Stupid thread is stupid, not wasting anymore time on the troll. |
