Thank you and welcome!  I know I've been a little scarce of late but I can say I've been working as hard as I can on getting the S402 ready for a production run.  The first prototype design has been submitted to the fabricator as of last week, but they are so busy they only just acknowledged receipt of the PO yesterday.  I assume it's going to be at least two weeks before they will have it completed and ready to ship to me.


In the meantime, I'm working on putting the final touches on my prototype #1 S700 Threadripper build.  I'm nearly done but I've had some laser cutter failures that require new power supplies (which will arrive tomorrow).  I'm hoping to have that build completed and listed on Ebay this weekend as I could use the money from that build to help pay for production costs of the S402.  Then I'll be getting started on the S700 prototype #2 build with dual-Epyc 32-core Engineering Sample CPUs.  I got the board and CPUs to boot with the 64GB of memory I purchased so now I just have to polish up the S700 chassis and actually build the water loop again.  It's going to be a busy several months moving forward.


Also, my wife has mono and Bell's Palsy, we had a stomach bug go through the house, my daughter has teeth coming in and hand-foot-mouth, and we're trying to get the house ready to sell in case we find something in the new area we are looking to move to.  Stress...


Regardless, my newsletter will go out as soon as I finish the 1950X build and at the same time I'll list the C7 adapters on my website.  The price for those adapters is going to be $15/each (free shipping to lower 48).  J-Hack informed me that he will have the brackets available on his site in the next few days (and they will be a few dollars less than mine).
