may-4-2003: C-One boards not for sale at the release party!
The release party is taking place tonight, but C-One boards will not be for sale at the event. Instead, the prototype that was also shown at various shows will be presented to all the journalists at the party.
The reason for this is a last-minute change of the final boards: As the disclaimer stated (and still states, no time to change it at the moment), the rom for the early startup procedure might have to be exchanged to update to a new version of early startup. Jeri Ellsworth came up with a solution of how to use the flashing capability of the chip that we chose, so even this part of the computer will be internet-upgradable. We hope you all understand that it's worth holding the boards back another week or two until this is all implemented - it's for the benefit of all developers and early customers who want to experience the stages of development "live" as we make them available on this website.
Check the website of Radwar Enterprises for directions of how to get to the partyplace!
