Ordered the boxes last night. They have to be custom made.. and expensive.. But should be here next week..

The bare PCBs should be here next week also..

I aim to start packing some up next week if the gods leave me alone for long enough that is! Aphrodite is becoming very demanding lately! :roll:

Didn't realize these were going to be available as well. How long will the preorder be up? I'd like to get one of these as well as the two bare boards I ordered but need to wait 2 weeks for that.

Thanks,

Jason

Pre orders in the case of the mostly assembled boards is a bit misleading as the boards are already manufactured. Pre ordering just means people are reserving a board and first in the queue for shipping. Once I have packaged the remaining boards up for stock, pre ordering will be gone and they will just be normal stock items. But that will take much longer.

Pre-order for the bare boards is because I don't plan to stock them as a store item. So if 10 people pre order bare boards that's how many I get made basically. Once they are gone from the store, they are gone gone, as I'm not planning on another run of the bare boards made.

I have packaged up 10 "mostly assembled" motherboards and I will try and ship them in the morning...

The bare boards are expected to arrive early next week. So I hope I can start shipping them soon as well.
