There is way too much drama going on in here. I am very much looking forward to my board but the best strategy I've found for dealing with the wait is to simply forget about the board. I forgot about it for a few months already, surely I can forget about it for another month and enjoy what I have. I have plenty of other things to focus my attention on. I do agree that life must still go on in spite of illness, but everyone handles it differently and it is a very sensitive situation. I am fine with Jchan taking the time he needs, I would only appreciate slightly more frequent communication, if only to hear how he and the family are doing, and any updates on parts and shipment. I won't say he is obligated to provide updates weekly but he does have a couple hundred thousand dollars from a lot of people right now so the least anyone in that situation could do is pop in every week or two even if nothing has changed.
Joseph, please handle it at your own pace, and good on you for not letting everyone get to you.
