Hi ppl,
I m sorry about complete situation, let's say that I don't have working Vampire 600, not a single one so I can used it.
I explained on various places what happened. First of all no one believed that demand for this card will be so high. I expected to sell about 40 of them. Now when we look all the facts production of 400 of them will not be enough, trust me.
My last order was captured by the customs and I had lot of problems to get it, at last chance I provided papers that this project was supported by the Government of my country and on customs finally said that I can have the shipment. Those papers was valid only one time so I can't use them more because Government supported me financially 3 years and according to law they can't support one project more than that.
So situation where I was is to open a company so I can import things like FPGA or to give up. Opening a company is huge task for me so I will need a find another way.
I open sourced complete project to give everyone a chance to build board for personal use. It is not huge task and I will help. In fact when someone builds it I can try to debug it using teamviewer or something.
Kipper2k is the honest man, but since he had some personal problems he didn't build much boards.
Regarding the cores, all of them will be fine just wait for apollo-team to finish, just be patient. From my side I hope that I will find a way to order more parts, after all I don't own any single board I produced.
Regarding money, orders etc... I entered Amiga scene to stay, not to be remembered as a person who made a fraud taking ppls money and not delivering the product. That's the reason why I didn't ask anyone to send money before I know I have working board for him.
