We are receiving orders from chip purchasers other than our own 6 batches, and will not be holding any components in reserve for those that have purchased chips from us.

Translation- if you have ordered chips and only chips, that does NOT reserve any other components for you UNTIL you order assembly. When you order assembly, you are buying those components at that time. His point was to light a fire under your asses to order assembly ASAP, not to say that he's going to shaft all his customers.

Give him a little credit, here!

I agree, we need to be patient and wait for clarification on the policy. One thing concerning me is that he was active on the forum just a couple of hours ago, so I would have expected a one line reply clarifying the policy after seeing the shit storm of posts here. Steamboat has been the model of thoroughness and fairness to date, so I do expect this all to be worked out satisfactorily.

Haha, this is all so very true now re-looking at it. Feelin' the stomach butterflies again! Grin

+1 to all of the optimism everyone
