This is great news.  Please let us know the progress so we can support you.

No arguement.  Colored flyers don't make hardware work, but....  Please
don't discount the importance of getting some info. out to the public.
If people don't know about it they won't know to buy it.  It takes time
to get things organized in the way of support.  What I'm trying to say
is:  You've got to let us know so we can plan (eg. focus of future SIG
meetings, discussions on local BBS's, etc.) and drum up "grass roots"
support so that John Q. Public will be moviated to buy your product.
I'm sure there are lots of people here who can get the word out, (GS+,
Incider/A+ (John K.), Apple II SIG's, etc.) but you've got to tell us
what's going on.
