Looks like the site and store are getting the hug of death. People really want this!

Is your manufacturing going to be able to keep up with demand?

Apparently!

Part of why we do pre-orders is to get a good read on demand early enough to adjust our production capacity. Our main manufacturing partner is Compal, who is one of the three largest laptop manufacturer in the world, so we have headroom to be able to continue to scale up.

Finally got the system to accept my pre-order, but landed in Batch 2. Oh well, worth the wait I'm sure!

This is really amazing. You're the only laptop giving Apple a run for their money.
