Test-Run of the 1GHz Pandoras happens today (2012-07-05)

[Linux-SWAT]

But staples are conductive !

Hope if that is true, the new cases aren't made of lego bricks

They are made of really tiny particles created with the help of the Higgs Boson, it couldnt have been done without the Higgs!

 

[ghostpatch]

use the "wrap it up with duct tape and its fine method" *thumbs up*

 

[Inferno's Reaper]

I was figuring we'd go with plastic food containers for the cases, since they're cheaper, super durable, & dishwasher safe ; )

 

[Foxgod]

Hmm, if i could put it in the dishwasher i wouldnt have to scrape the pizza remains out of the soc anymore!

I believe one of the methods is by saliva! ^_^

That would be the Hot glue method, Evildragons saliva is mostly composed of hotglue.


In the 80ies he used to work as a stamp licker for a post order company.

the stuff dripping off of my nose is way better suited. We don't wanna burn through the PCB!

As long as it doesnt cause virus spreading

 

[elwing]

if you use the glue method add a few gears and call it steampunk while you're at it...

Well, I got some information from GC today - seems like Murphy still loves the Pandora...


Everything has been setup to start on Wednesday - and when they tried to populate it, the Z-Axis of the assembly machine refused to work.


They tried everything to reanimate it again - without any luck.


On Friday a specialist from Siemens came, replace the IC precision head of the Z-Axis and now it's working again - cost: 12K EUR...


The test-run has therefore been rescheduled to happen on Monday.


I really should write a book about the Pandora and all that... Geeez.

 

[PaulForey]

You did call it the Pandora...

 

[diligentcircle]

You did call it the Pandora...

Pandora != Pandora's jar/"box".

 

[Foxgod]

too bad, a small delay.


But i suppose the 12K is for GC, and not for you guys?


12K loss for the panda team would be a awfull.


It would be redicilous if you guys have to pay for their broken parts.

 

[ahahah]

ok but, these 12k euros have to be paid by pandora or gc? :blink:

Or maybe...

Of course it's for GC, but I'm sad for them as well.

12K loss for the panda team would be a awfull.

Well, it would just add up to all the remaining losses we had because of other companies... but it wouldn't be a good thing, that's for sure.

thankfully, yeah it sucks for them too, but machines fail sooner or later, its the crappy part of business.


Thankfully its only a small delay.

Well thankfully this failure wasn't with the old company, otherwise it might of been more than a slight hiccup, hell they might of even tried to charge ya'll. Keep this positivity up though, we've come a long ways. Soon I as well as a few select others will have our 1GHZ pandoras sealed with ED's and Craig's possibly magical signatures!
