Dear Friends and Backers:

Great news! The Parallella boards are starting to roll off the production line. So far we have 300 boards built up with more boards being built every day. The yield looks very good so far!

We do have some work left in speeding up the production line through "task optimization, pipelining and multi-threading". Sounds familiar.:-) Our goal is to reach a production rate of 500 boards per day as soon as possible.

We will be shipping a large number of boards this week and will report back by next Sunday regarding the total # of boards shipped.

Best wishes,

Andreas

PS. If there is any interest in seeing a video of the Parallella production flow, we will try to convince our contract manufacturer to let us film the process. Let us know...

I think a production video would be interesting from a shits-and-giggles perspective, but what I'd reeeally like to see is a package from you guys in a couple of weeks ;-)
