I recently ordered the Xinghuo 3A 6100 directly from lemote.com, by emailing the sales people (can give you the email address I used in private mail). Payment was in advance via international bank transfer, $600 plus shipment and german import tax/customs. Machine was delivered via TNT within a few days. It looks pretty solidly build. Metal enclosure, pretty standard mini-ITX/ATX equipment AFAICS. Large enough to hold at least one 3.5 harddisk (a 2.5 drive is preinstalled, two SATA sockets provided on board). Has another case fan mounted above the hard-drive, so shouldn't easyly overheat. That said, it comes with some chines Linux derivate pre-installed, but I didn't yet find the time to put Debian on it. cheers, David -- GnuPG public key: http://dvdkhlng.users.sourceforge.net/dk2.gpg Fingerprint: B63B 6AF2 4EEB F033 46F7 7F1D 935E 6F08 E457 205F pgpZRgprZOAlx.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: MIPS64EL port box is ready for use
Hi, Graham == Graham Whaley graham.wha...@gmail.com writes: What we need to consider here is also board price and availability. We can buy 2f mini-PCs, relatively cheap and easily. If they satisfy a need then they may be (a mid-term/interim) solution to shortage of hardware right now. If I find we can source the 3A DDR3 motherboards easily them yippee, but right now that is less clear than sourcing the 2F mini-PC's. somewhat related information: just found out that there is (seems to be) a Loongson 3A based mini-PC: http://www.lemote.com/products/computer/fulong/348.html Price point seems to be RMB 3999, if I understand this shop's page correctly: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w4004-2611770768.2.DQacwZid=22206048695 Not sure how stable/usable that hardware would be, tough. I currently consider getting one to replace my 2f mini-PC. It may only come with a single-core version of the 3A (description says LoongSon2G/3A, not sure what that means). cheers, David -- GnuPG public key: http://dvdkhlng.users.sourceforge.net/dk2.gpg Fingerprint: B63B 6AF2 4EEB F033 46F7 7F1D 935E 6F08 E457 205F pgp4xQlQWK66i.pgp Description: PGP signature
