appreciated the encouragement misha. the plan involves bootstrapping
the way up from low-level beginnings all the way up to mass-volume
products. the pieces are falling into place, and it's through other
people helping to find things (like gordon finding that ztsystems
server, which leads to phytec) that it will get there quicker.

IIRC zt had announced like 2 years ago it was creating a server based
on the Marvell chipset, They had it listed on their website, but no
price attached to it.. it was more like vaporware.
There is another startup smooth-stone which seems to have industry backing.

couple it with the A15 quad's and you pretty much have a decent solution.
