Is there a tentative release date yet for the Quartz64 Model B? Will purchasing be available through your website? Will there be Linux OS software available for this SBC when it is released? Armbian with support?

Thank you again lot378. I'll be looking forward to independent reviews hitting some time after the general release in July. Upon general release will the 8GB RAM memory version be among the choices, or will that one follow sometime later?

I just received my first of 2 QUARTZ model A with 8GB models. Software selection is very limited but that's not a big deal if you accept the likelihood that you are testing a new device. Will try to test some builds on it maybe help work out some config stuff (not much of a programmer but i have been involved in thousands of unix builds, either end-to-end or as a config engineer).
It took about 2 weeks between the order and it arriving so it was quicker than I epected. customs hold often takes that long.
So what I'm getting at is they have had one version ready to go for at least a couple of weeks in terms of production. Given that the tendency is to get the hardware out when it is still fairly primitive in terms of software, within a month seems pretty plausible for QUARTZ B, maybe closer than that though we might hear a little later as our fearless leader Lukas is taking a well-deserved bit of time off

it doesn't get happy
it doesn't get sad
it just runs programs
What is the current status and general release ETA update info for the Quartz64 Model B?
