Finally got around to sending out order to PCBCart for 70 of these IDE V3 boards. Hopefully I got everybody. I got a few extra just in case. Here is my list:-
Glen Slick 4 Jeff Albrecht 3 Jack Rubin 3 J. Alexander Jacocks 1 Bob Bell 2 Gary Kaufman 3 Eric Osman 3 Malcolm Macleod 3 Tom Lafleur 1 Fabio Battaglia 3 David Fry 1 Paul Birkel 2 Dave Mehaffy (yoda) 3 Matthew Turner 3+3, (3 for Josh) Leon Byles 2 Charles Ledford 4 Robert Greenstreet 1 Max Scane 1 Michael Petry 3 Roger Hanscom 3 John Parsons 4 Andrew Bingham 1 Steven M Jones 2 Thierry Schembri 1 Rick Bromagem 2 Ian McLaughlin 1 Stan Katz 1 Total 64 Ordered 70 Boards. One cap was slightly I the way of the CF card so I will have them redo the board template. Will work out to be ~$12 board + shipping. Again, do NOT send anything via PayPal until you get the board(s). They are tell me 8 days + UPS time from China. Malcolm I need your shipping address.
