Then there's the crowdfunding goal, which is further ahead, but the cards' MOQ is already something. I guess there are MOQs for the other rewards too ?
What about the completely assembled laptops? The campaign seems to be past 250. I think there still is a need more orders of laptop parts. There was talk about >140 being desired.
the critical component there is the PCMCIA socket. if you add up the number of micro-desktop housings, laptop housings and breakout boards, the total comes to 201. so we're 80.4% of the way there on that one, too.
no, the main thing is, we couldn't have predicted the ratios that people would like to pledge for, in advance, and with a 20:1 difference betweeen highest and lowest parts it means we have to keep an eye on things and do the maths.
basically beyond a certain threshold raised it'll be really easy to complete. hard work, but we'll have the funds to do it.
also with more funds i can start considering planning ahead.
