Twelve days can be a long time to wait to receive an upgrade to your
favorite computer, but we need to appreciate that there are still
folks shipping anything for the Apple II.  Last I heard from Vince, he
was quite busy with the day job.  I'm sure he'd rather it didn't get
in the way of his hobby and passion and that he could fulfill all
orders quickly!

To be clear, your concern is valid -- but it does need to be
considered in context.  In the last 15 years, I've had two occasions
in the Apple II community where it took more than two YEARS for an
order to ship.  One of those orders is still outstanding.  I'd be
delighted to instead have had the experience you did!

I hope the RAM card proves worth the wait.
