 ok the $15 is the estimated cost of the _materials_.  no shipping,
profit, tax, box, power supply or anything included.  all those things
have to be taken into account.

 thank you adi.

 what would be amazing is if you had any contacts with people who
might be interested in this as a product.  we have for example some
people in mexico - a cooperative / CIC - who would like to put
together a Keyboard Chassis, into which EOMA-68 CPU cards could be
plugged directly.

 although it's worth pointing out that it's not strictly necessary to
have it plugged into anything: you can still operate over USB-OTG and
use the HDMI output.
