    What Are You Playing?

    Premier Manager II on the Amiga, and 10 Yard Fight on MAME. Not great or even good games, but somehow that makes me want to beat them even more.

    Can't use D-pad in Fuse?

    The DPad emulates the Kempston joystick by default; if my memory of my Spectrum days is right the 56780 input was what you got from Sinclair joysticks. So you need to pick Kempston somewhere in the settings...

    7 Day units new URL

    email whoever you ordered from and they'll get back to you with details; if it's from Craig's store, you just have to be patient as they're snowed under at the moment (with ICP going live and Pandoras being sent out all over the place), so they might take a couple of days or so.

    Your pandora has been shipped

    Just got my email from OPT - mine's shipped today :) Incidentally, for some reason the email went into my junk folder, so for those of you sitting and refreshing constantly - make sure you're checking there too... Mine's a Premium (upgraded from late Batch 2); given that I ordered via...

    This week & last week

    7 days, or 7 working days? If it's the former you've got about 3hrs40mins left to get mine to UPS, sleep deprivation or no... ;) but seriously - stay chirpy and good luck with all that flashing...

    Refunds - what's occurring?

    The number's on the email order confirmation too, assuming you got the same type of email that I did. (disclaimer: I am not a member of the OPT defence team. 'least, not til my Pandora gets here.)

    Instant Pandora with a premium?

    Might be a good idea (before you go to bed :D ) to specify what you're going to do about people with pre-orders who want to pay the extra to get a 'yours in 7 days' model... I've just sent in my email asking to do just that, but I doubt I'll be the only one.

    Instant Pandora with a premium?

    According to XE.com, $500 currently works out at £313.21. If that's exclusive of VAT, the extra 20% brings that to £375.85. So still a dent in your house-buying budget, but it could be worse. ;)

    Instant Pandora with a premium?

    As a second batcher (September 2010), here's some thoughts: 1) there's no objection to putting up the price for anyone who hasn't ordered a device yet beyond the question of whether it deters people from getting a Pandora; that's a business decision for OPT in the end. 2) I can fully...

    All the nubs are there! (2011 - 01 - 11)

    Now you've done it. Throw some salt over your shoulder, touch wood, turn around three times and spit, and then pray to whatever God you believe in that nobody from the Department of Tempting Fate was listening...

    No reason to bash (2010-12-15)

    Ordered in September so am somewhere in Batch 2, but have been interested in a Pandora for much longer... Was generally a lurker on here but started to post for a bit of balance when one or two threads on here were going negative. Maybe when I've been waiting Two Years I'll be a bit less...

    No reason to bash (2010-12-15)

    No-one's telling people not to discuss anything, but the thing is, further discussion of the business or the ethics of lying to keep a client (or indeed the rights and wrongs of waiting for nubs) here runs somewhere between pointless and counterproductive. You can argue these points as long and...

    No reason to bash (2010-12-15)

    it ________________________________________________________ There. That's a line drawn underneath it. :) Boards are being built, the nubs work, OPT are still flat out, so let's all have a happy Christmas and see what we get in the new year...

    2000 nubs ready to rumble (2010 - 12 - 07)

    There was a point yesterday where I realised that I was regularly refreshing my browser in eager anticipation of news on whether a guy I had never met had been able to go to a factory on the other side of the world, for a brief tour and - oh, if only - some pictures of computer innards. This...

    Nubs: 100% Success! (2010 - 11 - 21)

    Shoulders with ED - you're doing fine work. How you keep the patience to stay on the backs of the suppliers and answer every question the community throws up whilst remaining so polite, I do not know.

    New users, say hello

    Evening all. Ordered my Pandora early in Batch 2 and been meaning to join the boards for a while. About two months, in fact... Mostly looking forward to using it for retro gaming purposes but it all depends on how easy the machine is for a non-techy person to use.
