    Should I have received my final order eMail already?

    if we don't have accounts, how do we final order?

    The tale of the cases

    I'd assume they'd be used for 2GB boards which they work fine as?

    Analyzing 4GB RAM

    I actually want to change to 2GB/US LTE and don't know how to do so.

    I'm out of ideas for news-titles

    I have a Libretto, actually how I found the Pyra, which is a Pentium MMX in a VHS-sized package. Not the best battery life, but the only batteries I have for it are twenty years old and need to be rebuilt.

    Update regarding the cases (and some other things)

    I'm still kinda hoping for "old computer beige" as a case option, however unlikely.

    Surprise Attack!

    Yeah, I have a Shield Tablet and even the replacement I got after the battery recall seems to do its best under load to catch fire. Add to that the fact that its battery will under high load actually drain while plugged in to its proper charger, which is sitting near the top end of the USB 2...

    Last known issue fixed

    Is that including or excluding POST time? Because I got a system down to about ten seconds to cold boot Windows, minus POST.

    I second the vote for safety orange. Or maybe schoolbus yellow.

    Preorders Have Started. (Previously named starts in two hours)

    Except there are like ten different sizes of Barbie now. Banana is best scale unit.

    Colorful week

    That might actually end up being halfway doable after a fashion, making a custom sandwich of contact layer>paper>keycap layer, depending on exactly how much space there is between the mainboard and the inner shell. Yeah, you get rid of the backlight's effectiveness doing that.

    Colorful week

    Against modern storage, SD cards are freakin' slow. Even spinny disks, though that only really applies to large single writes. Firefox I'll attest to as being a hideous RAM hog, typically occupying an OBSCENE portion of my memory regardless of how much I have--typically ~2GB with plugins loaded...

    Colorful week

    Yep, twice as big as it needs to be--but someone in the future is going to have a legitimate use case where 4GB of RAM is more efficient than 2GB plus caching to eMMC, and then it won't be twice as big as it needs to be anymore. And there's always a case to be made for edge uses that need a lot...

    Finalizing everything!

    Fair response, really, though given the sheer volume of text it's easy enough to miss.
