Re: [xl7] Re: New OS and Updates?

2002-08-27 by Mark Pipher

I actually had someone from EMU call ME about the \u201cfree\u201d ROM offer I never received. She left a voicemail, didn’t really say why she was calling (probably to tell me I will never see it). I haven\u2019t had a chance to get back to her yet. At least I finally heard something about the form I sent in, even though it was 3 months later. How long have you been waiting for your ROM?

If you hear anything about the free ROM situation, let us know. It was a deciding factor in my purchase \u2013 I felt like I would be getting more for my money over a competitor\u2019s product.

that handled promotions and some other parts of the company were now
being handled by Creative Labs. It sounds like EMU is going through
a major shake up or merger of some kind. We can only hope that
EMU/Creative will support their hardware as well as EMU did by
themselves. But if this is any indication I doubt I'll be getting
that free ROM, I was on hold for almost 30 minutes before I was told
call tomorrow in the morning. If I had MY WAY... I'd want them to
just open-source the OS. I mean, you gotta buy the hardware for the
OS to work... and just imagine all the hacks people out there could
come up with.
