Yeah, yeah, of course... But...
1) When will there be a final prototype?
2) And then... What about the release date of the first series?
(All this without thinking on the price -low, as it seems-)
3) And the programmes? Or do we expect that it will be smart to
auto-programme itself?
4) And when we'll have a prototype, a regular releases of it, and
EVEN a couple or three programmes, we'll discover the same
as with Turbo-R: we need more GPX power.
Do ya think I'm pesimistic? Look at Moonsound and GPX9000,
specially GPX9000. And at their due time they had
-theoretically- a lot MORE support than any Z380 project.
Another matter is hardware relatively inexpensive (ACCNET,
RS232C, JoyNet-Joy-Com...) that requires few soft (specially the
first two ones) to get a, let's say, sooner 'pay-back'.
IMHO, I think it should be continued the coding of soft for the
ALREADY EXISTING hard rather than creating new hardware,
which requires a lot of programmes for being useful.
The opposite solution is just a waste of time and resources, I
think.
