I kind of struggle with sending checks out that might or might not be cashed. It's a bit annoying when I try to balance my checkbook.
If that is Andrew's preference I'll certainly support that method. But I'd hope we could find something better. If checks are the way forward, I rather like the idea of sending Andrew one big check that I know he would cash to convert into "board credits" (roll the shipping into the cost of the board and make it $23/credit for US people), and use those $$$ in the interim to move along the fabrication of various batches of *all of the different boards* until the board I want comes up and I opt to use the credits. I think this would build up a pool of resources that would allow the process to move forward for everything.
