Bill, In their defense a little, (very little) the cost of hardware
production these days, has just gone through the roof. And with very few
exceptions, most major magazines need 2-3 months lead time for ads, hence
the appearance of vaporware. We have decided to address the problem, by
just not advertising in major media at all!. I do think they should have
been a lot closer to actually delivering a product before taking a demo
unit all over the country a getting every one's hopes up. For our Video
Digitizer, we actually only showed it for the first time this last week at
SiGGraph in Atlanta, and we are praying that the ram we have coming for it
will arrive in the next 4-6 weeks so we can deliver the units we have
promised. It can be a tuff biz, and sometimes you get your shirt tail
caught in your fly!
