Read post #1 & #2...Not sure if I'm reading it right but seems like you're getting a designer to create a board for these BFL chips?
So GB is for chips but there's a potential of a working board for these chips.
And you suggest 8-16 chips because that's what the board will req.?
Yes, there are hardware guys working on BFL boards. not all are doing it because of me, I'm not so special! LOL, there are lots of independent folks who are working on them.
8-16 suggestion is based on what BFL has produced with their own boards... but I'm guessing PCBs that accept 1 chip may be produced as well.
