Yes, there are existing Geode boards made by AMD and other vendors that
Microsoft can work on today.
If and when Microsoft ask us for development boards, and we have them to
distribute (power on is a couple weeks out for the first board), we'll
send them some of our boards. It is entirely possible Microsoft have
already asked Nicholas for our boards; I don't know off hand if this has
occurred or not.
