I just found out about the PC532 project/concept thing -- highly amusing. What's the price of admission? Looks like I can buy a board; PALs too? how much? And what do the rest of the parts total up to, more or less? Sources? Thanks much! -- ____________________________________________________________________________ INET: chris@asylum.gsfc.nasa.gov (128.183.10.155) NASA/GSFC: Code 735 UUCP: ...!uunet!asylum.gsfc.nasa.gov!chris Greenbelt, MD 20771 SPAN: PITCH::CHRIS Fax: 301-286-9214 Phone: 301-286-6093

The next run of boards will be started soon (expect a message on this topic on Tuesday, next week). The cost of the PCB will depend on the number of boards produced. The "normal" price is $200 per board, but this may change. We ship the PCB, schematics, pal equations, and documentation with the board. It's up to you to get the rest of the parts together, although I can help with the CPU/FPU/ICU. Steve Ligett <steve.ligett@mac.dartmouth.edu> put together a kit of all parts for people in the last run - I don't know if he is willing to do it again, though (Steve?). Perhaps he could post the prices, anyway, so people can get a good idea of what it all costs. -- Dave Rand {pyramid|mips|bct|vsi1}!daver!dlr Internet: dlr@daver.bungi.com
