OK, thanks, I'll be waiting...  Or let me know if I need to contact
someone, :-)

She is already in the CC list(betty zha...@lemote.com).


OK, I haven't been able to get any further regarding acquiring some
motherboards with loongson-3a...

I'm looking forward to getting 4 of them, but I have no clue how,
neither which formats I could get them (2 NICs, HDMI support, etc).

Any help towards acquiring such boards is welcome.

I recently ordered a Loongson 3A "desktop" system by just mailing zhangm <at> lemote . I would have preferred a bare mini-ITX board but they don't currently sell these. They sold me the Xinghuo 6100 computer for $600 plus shipment (and customs). Here's the product page:

  http://www.lemote.com/products/computer/fulong/348.html

Payment was in advance via international bank transfer (may add >30 EUR depending on your bank), shipment came within a few days via TNT (had to pay import tax in cash to the TNT delivery person and sign some stuff). Luckily they had my phone number and phoned me to ask when to attempt another delivery where I'd actually be at home (and then delivered saturday morning). Make sure you give your mobile phone number with your order.

All in all a very pleasant experience.

The computer does have a mainboard that looks like mini-ITX. A x16 PCI-e socket seems to be designed into the board, but has been omitted at assembly. Also two of four SATA sockets have been omitted. Two DDR3(?) slots (2x1GB preinstalled), ATX power connector, one large and one small fan on board (one for the CPU, one for the AMD bridge/graphics chip?). Internal power supply has a fan, plus there's another case fan mounted above the hard disk space. Metal enclosure, pretty much space for a mini-ITX system, looks like it can take at least a 3.5" hdd plus a slim DVD drive, but only a single 2.5" hard disk comes pre-installed.

Will post photos as soon as I find the time.

The system comes pre-installed with two different chinese linux derivates that can be selected via pmon. Only booted it once to do a quick check. Didn't try to install a more mainstream Linux (e.g. Debian) yet.

cheers,

David
