WE CANNOT tell you who to do business with. all we can do is tell you to read what has been said about business dealings with him and form your own opinion. the majority of us have our own opinions of him and we decided by what we already know. funny that he contacted you directly after reading that you wanted to buy one here on the list. and he never said anything here at all.......

Folks, I'm a newbie to the list. Last week or so, I posted a question
about serial board replacements for my 2100, and Ferdi emailed me
directly. I bought one of his boards on ebay, packed up my Newton + my
check to send, but the young lady at Kinko's messed up the address, so
it never left Portland. It's sitting at Kinko's, waiting for me to give
them his correct address or just cancel the shipping.

Beside the fact he doesn't really contribute to the list, is his
product unreliable? It's sounds like maybe I need to cancel my order
with Ferdi, find this PCBman and buy from him.

but I will await the wisdom of the Newters....

thanks in advance
