My guess is that if folks purchase items that they could use, we will
keep a viable development environment. Especially considering the neat
products being developed these days.

As they say money talks but BS walks.

By voting with our dollars we are directly telling the developers what we
want and need for the Newt.

Even Ferdi's attempt at a Frozen Newt was interesting in that regard. In
that case, the Newt community decided not to support him.

With PCBman's SER001 we did. And had enough for a second run.

I for one will be voting with my $ for NewtSync and the ATA Driver. And
I will gladly spend more $ on stuff that I can use, just like the
wonderful SER001 that I have.
