Andy – I'm not complaing that transformer is slow – I would expect an emulation to be slow. I'm complaing that I ALREADY spent over 200$ for the damn thing, and all I want it to do is WORK SLOW! it doesn't work at ALL! And you guys (can't duck the corporate responsibility, y'know) HAVE A WORKING VERSION and you won't release it! Irresponsible, rude, anasty, and 100% in character for the CBM we have all come to know. If expandability is so darn important, then maybe you people should have thought a little harder about condemning the a1000 owners to NO EXPANDABILITY by making the 2000 and the 500 incompatible with the world. It wasn't enough to go off in a new direction for you guys – no, you hadda go in THREE directions. <shaking head> As for time to stop complaining about transformer – sure. refund my money – I'll shutup. Of course, you'll have to refund the $$$ of all the OTHER people CBM ripped off, too. Can't see making them pay dld charges for 47 versions? You must be referring to CoComm…. muddy thinking, andy muuudy thinking. I don't make ANYBODY pay dld charges – once or multiple times – I simply made certain that the BEST that I had to offer was available for those who felt it was worth their time to get. You, on the other hand, seen to feel that you can make that decision for them – that it's not worth their time, or you need to control their wallets/purses – what a cruddy attitude! If I NEED a new ramdisk handler, I can't get it because you're protecting my wallet? That's stupid, plain and simple. As for CoComm, although I get kidded about the uploads, no one is mad that it's there to take – plenty of people opt not to, and that's their business. –Ben–
