Wonderful news. I held off on the first lot of 5 or so to let others get in quick, but with the ping I've now ordered mine :D

I have one board where I managed to crack the FPU socket :roll: I don't think these Precidip sockets are very good :roll: I think what happened was one of the FPU legs was bent and it forced against the plastic rather than the spring pin on the socket itself and it forced the plastic apart :roll: As such I am classing this as a "B-grade board".

Anyway, the CPU runs at 50MHz, the FPU also runs at 50MHz but can't guarantee the FPU will continue to function as-is. It has been running FPU test for the past 2 hours. This board is the same price as the 40MHz ones, but someone will likely have to 3D print a collar for the socket to squash it back together.. or just remove the FPU if you don't care about it. It also has the current firmware flashed (V1.02) .

If someone specifically wants this one then when you purchase from the store, tell me your username and I will set it aside for you.
