Emax

Group Members-

For those of you that have ordered- THANK YOU!
I do appreciate the purchases you have made.

After the chatter on the group from time to time that has happened  
over the years wanting this upgrade to be available, I thought I would  
be doing a great service for our members to make this happen.
I wanted SCSI for my keyboard, waited a long time for it to happen,  
and had to cannibalize a dead rack bought off ebay to get it.
It was a crap shoot because I wasn't even sure the chips would work.
The emax was dead, but the chips were ok. I felt lucky.....

But it is a sad thing to have to destroy 1 to make 2 or take a risk  
purchasing something HOPING it has good chips or is not dead, etc.....

Then things came together, I was finally able to make the kits  
available.

That being said, I have been quite underwhelmed at the number of kit  
orders I have received.

Does everyone already have SCSI and I just didn't know it so this has  
been for the most part a worthless effort?

That would be truly disheartening.....


I understand that some folks may not like the $50 price tag.

In regards to that, let me explain that I didn't come to this figure  
lightly.

1) It has cost me almost $900 to make this happen -this does not take  
into account my time to research, gas to go get parts, etc.....

2) The costs of the raw parts in each kit make up half the selling  
price.

3) Some of the raw "obsoleted" parts MUST be ordered in quantity to  
get them at a reasonable price (SCSI controllers and PALs).  $150 goes  
away pretty quick.

4) The money is going towards getting back my costs and as I receive  
orders it allows me to purchase some more parts to make more kits.


So please keep the above in mind if you are considering a purchase.

Please don't think that the $50 price is because I am being greedy.

Even with the kits I have sold, I am still about $300 in the negative.  
I haven't broke even.



I am selling the kits on Ebay- but for a little more money due to ebay  
fees. It is still cheaper to buy from me off the Emax group.

I look forward to any orders you might have.  I always try my best to  
ship your order the very next day after receiving payment.


Respectfully,
Ted
