[Arm-netbook] crowd supply eoma68 nearly $30k

[Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton]

woo-hoo! :)

anyone who looks closely at the numbers and who knows that i've been
talking constantly about a MOQ of 250 EOMA68-A20 cards should have
done a little math in their heads, "74 + 41 = 115", 250 / 115 = 2.17,
$30k * 2.17 = ......

The problem is that if you want to get the funds you need to reach 150k.
That is a problem in the pages of crowdfunding. The goal should be to
achieve X units, not reach X money. In the pages of crowdfunding
everything is money, and gives a monetary vision of projects. If
hardware projects need money, it is to achieve MOQs, not to get rich.

the problem is that the "usual" crowdfunding projects, you don't have
multiple radically-different arbitrary modular parts! you have one
main "thing", and errr... that's it.

but you're absolutely right, there should definitely be a MOQ not a
financial target, i'll mention it to crowd supply, see what he thinks.

I would think that all the backers now definitely want to see the
cards happen, so probably an alternative ordering has to be found
should the campaign not meet its goals...

Kind regards,

well, let's get through this one first, we know that it's with the
backers help (themselves) that we can reach more people, so they stand
a higher chance of success if they can persuade others to back it as
well.
