saw this in my email, thought I would share the deal.

Not a bad deal. Great starting board, red plate stock and the controller is pretty easy to change. Some users have had problems with the usb port but for me atleast it has been fine and it can be fixed more stable with some DIY work. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=58319.msg1420961

yes, still ill that I missed that. Although I did end up buying the leftovers of one of those for $25 after someone gutted it for the switches. put some vintage ghetto reds in it and now wifey uses it at work. and I have another one of these that I bought to harvest switches for someone which I rebuilt using old browns. I also sold one I put vintage blacks in. All in all, I have had or still have a total of four of these boards, and I have had no issues with any of them. Plus bpiph has a cheap custom controller for them (shamefully, I have yet to assemble mine).
