| Merlancia explains the Torro series : Comment 18 of 23 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by Ryan E. A. Czerwinski on 22-Oct-2000 22:00 GMT | Even I am not happy with the design of the site. It is meant to be quick and simple while our costly designer works on a layout thet screams cutting edge.
Please have some patience...Rome wan't built in a day, and a killer website won't be either. We are doing a different theme for the MISEL public announcement site then the rest of Merlancia.com, which has never received any complaints on it's design. The new site should be starting to go up by the end of the week.
Hope this makes everyone feel better. If, however, anyone does have any design ideas, we would be glad to listen to them. We beleive in making sure that the community is happy. Sorry, a site that only works in 800x600with green text on a blaque background is not a good idea in my opinion, though i know of others who have done it... Again, we are happy to hear from you, our family. The Amiga fmaily. We are glad to see concern about the design of our MISEL site, as it shows that you are paying attention and are expecting something better. There is nothing wrong with wanting something better. That is what being an Amigan is all about. I feel that the Amiga platform is better than anything else out there today, just as I feel that our hardware series is better than anything else that is being planned.
To answer two more questions that have been asked several times:
1) When we reference the PowerPC 7400 procesor, we are referring to the 7400 series, which includes the 7410. It is only logical that we will go with the best available.
2) The circuitry design for the 4700 based systems is based off of the POP designs, however, it is modified from the POP designs to our needs. We are not just taking off the shelf boards and slapping them in a fancy package. Thsese boards will be our own designs with the system name sreenprinted on them. We are trying to do something special here, not just another "PC Clone". Please remember however, that we ar enot doing a "BoXeR". These systems will not have the custom chipset on them. If AG didn't keep changing their minds, we would be modifying the BoXeR design right now instead of designing our own. We really wanted to provide a dual solution. That, however, is too far lost to be looked at again.
I hope this clears up a few more issues. Thanks again for your support.
P.S. The "sales@merlancia.com" e-mail address is broken right now. A critical database was corrupted on one of our server systems that is in charge of the e-mail handler. We are in the process of restoring that currently. Please report any dead links to webmaster@merlancia.com. Thanks.
Cheers,
Ryan E. A. Czerwinski
