- These guys are obviously losers and do NOT deserve the Amiga
- community's business. I had the same experience Spring '94,
- except with A500s and A600s. Arrived DOA and had to send back,
- then it's up to the customer to get their money's worth. They
- NEVER return calls and take forever to get the "warranty" repairs
- done.
-
- One of their owners called me last summer begging for my business
- (we buy lots of A500s and A600s for integration into our
- Amiga-based teleprompting systems). He admitted problems in the
- past, and then admitted that those problems still exist. I declined
- his sales pitch.
-
- You should too (my opinion only)
