Case work update:
- Power distribution and control PCB expected to be completed by early next week. Will support both Raspberry Pi or Beaglebone Black.
- Mechanical design is essentially complete, just need to complete part drawings and fire off to Steamboat
Still no price estimate, as this will depend on the quantity of parts ordered.
Changes since last design:
- 15 K16s per enclosure necessitated by a space added for an ATX PSU
- Ethernet connector added which will allow direct connection to the Raspberry Pi or Beaglebone Black for standalone operation
- Power distribution and control PCB will have both Molex and terminal strip connections for power
Case design could easily be adapted to support other PCBs (i.e. Bitburners)

With avalon starting to ship chips, I am very anxious to lock down how I am going to house and power my (16) boards. Timing and pricing are both important to me, but if I had to pick one, timing would be of the greatest concern right now.
