BUY THE HPC-I and II RIGHT NOW?

Sounds veeeeeeery interesting!

Where to order them? At genesippc?

How much these boards cost each?
(considering the fact that evaluation boards are always high priced due to low quantities production).

Did you miss the "You can buy them from Freescale right now" part?

Again (as said several times in this thread), these motherboards are not products from Genesi, and question is if these Freescale reference motherboards will be of any real use to you? I guess they aren't exactly supported as consumer-level products you know ...

You can find *Genesi's* products over at https://www.pegasosppc.com/store.php


Edit: If you go to Freescale.com and enter "hpc" in the "parts" search field at the top of the page, you will reach the following information after a few clicks:

Budgetary Price* QTY 1000+ ($US) = $2,494.00

This should give you a hunch, although you can probably negotiate this with Freescale depending on what you might propose to them (ie how interesting they will find your project to be)

*) Budgetary Price (1000+Qty, US Dollars) is the Manufacturers Suggested Resale Price per unit in US Dollars for a quantity purchase of more than 1000 units. All prices are provided for budgetary purpose only, shown in United States Dollars, and are subject to change without notice.
