- I've received requests for 35 kits so far. Very few want the microprocessor,
- and the vast majority want the sensors. So the kit I'm making up will be
- w/o 68HC811, and with sensor parts.
-
- Mouser can't help out, so I'm going to go ahead and use the suppliers that
- Fred Martin lists in his parts list in the back of the documentation. This
- has the added advantage that we _know_ the parts will be exactly what the
- miniboard expects.
-
- Since my kits won't include a microprocessor, you can either get them on
- your own, or use Alan Kilian's offer (that's what I'm doing).
-
- So, one last time... The parts list is now exactly what is in Appendix B
- of the Miniboard 2.0 technical reference, sans microprocessor and C
- cell batteries. Using the prices in that appendix, each kit will be
- about $35 plus postage. I'm calling these companies today to get some
- exact pricing information (including postage costs and quantity discounts).
