Understandable, that seems to be what you need the most at this point.

I'm interested as well, though I likewise don't have the low-level
software experience that would likely be required. I'm a Linux
sysadmin, so Linux I can do, but ARM kernel/boot stuff is a bit out of
my depth thus far. That said, I do have access to a laser cutter and a

Actually heck, if the dimensions are roughly the same as the ones
posted on CS for the old case, you could probably even fit two per
12"x12" sheet. :) (Assuming I'm not utterly failing at math, heh.)

Well, design-wise it doesn't look as good either... I must say the

comparatively plain. But still much better than just a laser-cut box,

As much as I would love to help, I don't have the low-level Linux

I agree with Julie here. If you tell users you're providing Debian, it
should be stock Debian (or as close as possible as is needed to
support the hardware). Likewise for every other distro.
I would be incredibly irritated to get a "Debian" computer card, only

Wait, how? It's a pre-existing connector. How do you have any control
over Intel's use of PCMCIA?
Now if they'd *called* it EOMA68, or EOMA68-com
It's a shame that none of the previous EOMA-68 devices got off the
ground before Intel pulled this out - "hey this already exists"
would've been a serious advantage for EOMA-68 as a standard.

Oh interesting. If that's representative of other similar LCDs (and I
suspect it is) that explains why we don't really see laptops with e.g.
24-hour battery life regardless of how little power the CPU uses.
Hey, I have a few questions about the laptop housing.
- How does one connect it to power? Can it be powered over USB or does
it require a specific AC adapter? I have a portable solar array with a
battery pack that can charge portable devices over USB, and I'm trying
to work out whether or not I'll

I'm curious, since unlike most laptops the computer is in a separate

would be for a traditional laptop or phone? Would be interested to
know if this is supported in general, only with certain CPU cards, or
not at all.
So, to clarify: if you reach the MOQ for everything but don't meet the
crowdfunding goal, what happens? Is this like most other crowdfunding
campaigns where you would get none of the funds, and have to contact
everyone who pledged if you wanted to move forward?
And what happens if you reach the MO
