Location: Australia | I think this is pretty exciting news. It's interesting to have a look at all the options and see what's possible.
Seems like the factory is prepared to make any Adamas configuration you want.
Even though I bought a #47RI and a 1687RI last year, it's still got my wheels turning.

Location: Phoenix AZ | I think the Adamas Custom Shop is just the modern day replacement for the Sears & Roebuck Christmas Catalog. Man, I used to love paging through that thing.
Anyone know when the Adamas website will be updated to include all this good new info? Last update was Dec. 2005. For a leading edge high tech company they sure are behind the times when to comes to communicating their message.

Location: Phoenix AZ | Guys, guys, guys ... After all this time you still don't know me very well, do you. You don't think FOR A MINUTE that I asked that question about when the adamas website would be updated because I actually expected an answer, do you ???
What better way to make a "statement" than to ask an innocent question, one to which you already know the most obvious, pathetic and embarrasing answer. Some of the website is actually pretty nice. The history part is interesting and has actually been updated within the last 2 years. But how freaking hard is it to inform the world about the great things you are doing on a semi frequent basis?
Our MarCom web specialist at my company showed me her job description. It says "Minimum of weekly you must refresh the latest product, people, corporate profile, environmental or community events information on the website. If there is nothing official to update, then make something up." She makes $12. an hour and does an amazing job.

Yah, that'll do it! Maybe...
There's nothing worse than having to explain your own sarcasm. It defeats the whole purpose you were trying to defeat in the first place. |

And they have done a very nice job with these pages.
