WARNING TO RED: your warranty policy may be illegal

jaadgy, the topic doesn't exist or has been removed. So we can only guess about what was so interesting.

I find it bizarre that the topic supposedly doesn't exist because it was current and I visited it this morning. It was a thread with a guy in Mexico who bought RED #76, second hand . I asked him if he was being able to get access to all the camera builds and he said yes. BTW, if I'm not mistaken, and judging from his name, the guy happens to be a relatively well known music video producer/director in Mexico. I do find it weird that they blocked that link.

And you couldn't find the thread back on Dvinfo itself too?
Was it posted in the RED forum?

If I was a billionaire and had a few RED cameras to play around with, but had all this silly whinning irritating me, I might think about dropping the camera making business altogether.

How long will Jannard enjoy this camera business before he get's bored and tired of faceless whinners and calls it quits?

Jim doesn't sit and cry over these posts. I imagine he takes to heart what he sees as valid and he throws the rest in the garbage and perhaps laughs about some of them. These faceless whinners have helped shaped this camera, because sometimes they have good ideas. He knows that, and that's why he plays along. IMHO.

Self made billionaires don't know the word quit. Don't lose any sleep.

Youre not understanding the notion of making yourself into a household name.
And whining and whiners both have one n, not two. Winning and winners have two n's.

My thoughts exactly. I sit back and laugh at them too...

I'm still in disbelief of all this... Jim Jannard is quite generous, but I hope this all turns out well for him. As he said before I have my fingers crossed as RED is a format I will choose if I ever have the need.


[edit] what am I kidding, now that the red is real he has everything he needs this doesnt have to work out any better than it already has i just hope for myself that it does.
