Howdy, fellow Vampire slayers.

1. What's the recommendation from the team on running a V1200 in an Amiga, with the trapdoor open or shut? does the Vampire heat up enough to warrant keeping it off?

2. What's the current lead time, from expressing interest in a V500, to delivery? Are you still making the A500 Vampire?

thanks :)

The V1200 should not heat up significantly.
Closing the trapdoor is recommended.

With the current focus on V1200 production, the V500 production was delayed. I assume that in the next month another batch of V500 will be produced again.
