Hi.
I would imagine that Rev-Ed are to be with us for a long time, but having said that, what becomes of the Picaxe, if Rev-Ed should fail, close-down, sell to another party?
I doubt this will ever happen, with a product such as Picaxe, but I just want to evaluate the worst-case-scenario...
In that event, what happens to the thousands of us who have used a Picaxe in our product?
If they sold-out to a 3rd party company, what is to stop the price of Picaxe's sky-rocketing beyond all expectation?
If they went under, what happens?
Can we get any support or a new source of chips in this event?
I have no wish to be negative, but I have to evaluate the pros and cons, as I now use Picaxe chips in pretty much all my new designs for many, many clients, and this is the first time these thoughts have occurred to me...
