I'd love to have one -- but you'd have to knock a zero off, which I know ain't gonna happen -- and with good reason!

ok, so in about 2 months i'll be doing a SMALL production run - absolute maximum of 20 units - of the latest revision EOMA68-A20 CPU Cards as well as putting together some 2nd revision laptop kits. it *might* also be the case - i have to check how many - that we have a sponsor (a 3d-printer company) for printing out the casework parts, primarily because these are exceptionally challenging parts and the sponsor would like to show that the quality of their printers is up to the task (which it is). certainly i am pushing the limits of the mendel90 which is in essence a significantly-improved reprap, as it is.
at this very early stage i don't want to go above 20 units just in case i have to do modifications by hand to the PCBs - which, if it becomes necessary won't be hard (with the 2-layer single-sided boards): i just don't want to have to spend that much time.
now, i'm *estimating* that the kits will be around the $EUR 400 to $500 mark, if we _can_ get to 20 then it may be less than that. i also have another sponsor who is prepared to buy some kits to sell, so that the per-unit cost can come down - we just have to see, based on who'd be interested.
so... who's interested?
