Thread: Opus Group Buy

I just called Kris up. He's a real nice guy and even told me he still needs to reply to Skipperman's lastest email.

He knows that you guys are all concerned but he says he doesnt even have them yet. He told me he has 100 coming in on his pilot run and has reserved 30 of them for this group buy. He told me he will definitely be ready within 3 weeks and was even saying there are few extra features regarding standyby mode. Apparantly all of them are spoken for in the first run that we are in so we'll be one of the first to have them. Also i talked to him about warranty especially since were the first batch and he told me that it comes with a 3 yr warranty where we pay to ship it to him and he pays to ship it back.

The dimensions he gave me were 170mm x 78mm and he said that about 3/4 of an inch in height should give it good clearance. Also they wont come in a case.

Again he understands that you guys are concerned and he realised that he made a mistake in announcing it before he even had it. After talking to him im convinced i want one so if you guys can wait lets keep the deal alive and not bail out.

Also i had no trouble calling him up so if youre really worried call him up. He picked up immedeately. I just used my cell since i get free LD. Ya gotta understand its not a huge operation.

$125 each at a bulk purchase of 25 seems like a really good deal.

Sounds good to me, hopefully the price will be right as well! Thanks for looking into it!

$125?? I am DEFINITELY in!! Can't wait, I have ordered everything I need so far except the PS!!

for $125 I am in too! put me down as a definate!

Let me correct what i was told.

It's $125 for the PSU each at a bulk price.
Then another $25 to ship it to the person who we are going to entrust (I'm assuming skipperman) and then whatever it costs to ship it from skipperman to you. Also im not sure if skipperman wanted to get something out of it for all his troubles.

So im assuming 135-140 for it.

And this is for the 90 WATT.

questions:
what are you guys going to do with it placement wise? it comes with no case housing so what the heck are you supposed to do? cant just leave it exposed

also
would a duron 1.1, matx board, onboard video, usb stuff and a 60gb hard drive be able to run on 90w?

He said you can bolt it to your case.

I was going to build a custom case so i would make room for it and just screw it to the case. If you are using a premade case then i would say find some unused screw holes on the metal mount for your motherboard and see if you can put it there.
