It is starting to look bad. It seems like the only thing the Outlaws are doing lately is pushing out receivers (not their hardware), returns, and overstock speakers which may be a sign they are going under. I certainly hope not! I for one have been hanging on with my 950 for more than a few years now and I am ready to release cash; but time has almost run out - not sure how much longer I can holdout. Since the beta apparently happened several months back, I really hope they are still a go and the 998 available by Thanksgiving will be a good news spike to get the Holiday spirits going. I do know that general availability of electronic components has become a real problem lately with 20 - 40 week lead times not uncommon. I hope that is not their problem now. Maybe they are just stocking the warehouse today in preparation for the big announcement. I say (the obvious) - if you don't have your dreams, what have you got?
