At least you're not pre-waiting

Got my email now now.
Will ponder on the situation this weekend.... Shipping is 5quid iirc.... that brings the whole thing to 31quid = around R420.
Will run up SAB and SB on Linux this weekend and see how I find it on there wrt memory usage - on my Windows server the two uses around 240MB RAM.

Both my son (UK) and I got our order codes today. I wonder if the South African orders will be shipped from RS in SA?

Well I did register the day RS was open for registration. Only issue I see is in six weeks time I will probably be in Nigeria for a month.

Ordered mine too. Left out any accessories. What hdmi does it use btw? is it the same as the mini displayport as on some display cards?

30.87*13.03 = R402.

How did you get R367? (linky perhaps)

According to their web site, all shipments are from UK

Maybe they ship their SA shipments from RS(UK) to RS(SA) and then to us?
