If someone were willing to take on mass producing these, and make them available through a normal distribution channel, they could sell these all day long. :idea:
Thats why I ask about the design being open.  If you do that then no one needs to take on the task of trying to mass produce, we can each just upload to a pcb service we prefer.

Not everyone has a PCB service on speeddial, lol. :laughing:

There is this new fangled thing called the internet so we all do.  OSHPArk for example or the one dangerous prototypes uses, or one of the many others.  Its super simple now a days.

Thats why I'm wondering what is/was released.  I know they schematics have been redrawn a couple times too, but in what format.

I started playing around with redrawing the schematics in KiCAD, so if I ever get finished it wouldn't be much more to make a board.

Looks like they might have had an A2000 board as well?
