That would have been a sweet way to get a discounted SAM440!

I'm not entirely sure what "Sucks" the most!?
The crap above or the actual price of a Deneb USB card in the first place!? Considering you can buy a PeeCee USB PCI card for around £15, is someone not taking the piss somewhere or are we all too blind to give a rats ass!?

Is this deal still valid? Where do you see the 20%? I couldn't spot it..

PeeCee USB PCI cards use cheap ASIC's and are made in their millions which cuts the cost right back.

Deneb uses an FPGA and is made in the 100's.

While I think at £100 ($200) it is very expensive for what it is. Unfortunately it is the price you pay for custom electronics. I do not think anyone is getting rich here. 10% for the manufacturer and 10% for the retailer perhaps?
