I wonder how many developer boards they have sold? I doubt we will find out though.

Well, I have one on order, two others here have said they have ordered one, and that was within a day or so of the news item, so I'll bet they sell all the developer boards by the date mentioned.

The one thing I would change is to put the AMR slot between the AGP slot and the first PCI slot.  That way there would be lots of room for the heatsink/fan on the video card.  As it is you may not be able to use the first PCI slot if you have a fan on your AGP card.   And from what I've heard the Matrox cards run hot, so need it.

I wonder if it's too late to make such a small change.

You can't use both the first pci slot and the agp slot AFAIk. Even though the Northbridge documentation I found at MAI.com is a little vague on the subject.

The AGP slot shares one of the PCI buses. If you want to use the AGP slot you only have 3 PCI slots.

> I wonder if it's too late to make such a small change.

No changes will be made. This is the board Eyetech ordered, and this is the board they will be distributing.

Which is a prime reason why I WON'T be buying this particular item.  It's a dead end, a re-invention of a wheel that's already working pretty damn well.  It's not 10 years ago, and we're not talkin' 'bout the Mac.  I say let's beat 'em at their own game.  Raid the enemy camp for their killer hardware, but run a wholly better OS on it that unleashes the machine's true power!  Makes sense to me. :-D
