Next Pegasos production sold out : Comment 147 of 280 | ANN.lu |
Posted by anonymous on 08-Jun-2002 17:09 GMT | In reply to Comment 145 (Bill): "We sell the Pegasos mainboard. Please speak to your preferred reseller about how you want this to be configured and then buy one from him. You want to load OS4 you are now free to figure out how to do this. That is up to you -- not us!
Is that OK?"
I'll take that last quip as a rhetorical question, but the answer is 'No.'
It's up to *me* to find someone to sell me this board? In the first place 'preferred reseller' is an oxymoron in this market and secondly if Thendic can't direct consumers to resellers why are you promoting the hardware in the first place? Is a user's guide bundled with the hardware or do I need to write that too?
More importantly 'loading' OS4 is not the issue here - it's the ability to run a sanctioned, legitimate copy of the operating system that has been certified by the developers of both the hardware and the software.
I'm trying to remain interested in making an investment here but you're obviously not interested in taking my money. Who exactly is the target market for the Pegasos? |
