flminer sent one to be reviewed by me.
Of course with shifting and rearranging gear. I do not have enough pcie cables to do a proper review.
I ordered a set of cables from side hack and will be reviewing this in a few days.
I do have enough parts to run a mobo with no gpus and will photo it shortly

I have 2 pico's on hand
I have 1 psu on hand
I have 1 breakout board on hand.
I have pcie cables on order from sidekick
I have a breakout board on order from holybitcoins.
I will be ordering a new psu from sidehack if he has a blue plug plat one.
not sure if flminer is doing cables or psu's or breakout boards.
But his picos are my favorite design so far.
I will be doing some other things with his pico's very soon just need to be sure it works. before I show them here.
