Which forum/threads to follow for developments in the ASIC and populated boards?
Lots of forums on bitcointalk, so where should I look for information on ASICs in production and for sale to those who make and populate their own construction PCBs? Would that forum also follow ASIC development? Getting old but I remember a widely circulated ASIC hoax from a former Eastern Bloc country, which I could remember its name, Primeasic or something?

None.
There are dev threads but these days would be for altcoins only - not BTC.
Other than that, the
Bitcoin Hardware area is all there is for BTC miners.
The only company that even entertains the idea of selling current-gen ASIC's to the 'general public' is Bitfury and they have a $ 1million MOQ. So far only Sidehack has gotten them to entertain a lower amount and safe bet that may be a 1-time deal.
