Heartily seconded, but who would be so bold (and may I add fearless, rich and idle enough) to source the parts in quantity, sort them all into organized packs and then run such a mail-order business at the same non-profit level as HyperJed and yourself?
...If only it were me: I'd really enjoy the rich and idle part, and would have a lot of fun playing electronics warehouse in between dips in the pool and bites of lobster thermidore! ;-)
Since there are apparently no millionaire philanthropists (as yet) stepping up to the plate, I figure the next best thing is us working together to get 'project order' kits worked out that cover all the bases - Then at least the new board owners don't have to start from scratch referencing the parts list on the group buy page.
I will look into Newark as you suggest and post back here when I know more - In the meantime anyone else who has already done this is more than welcome to chime in!
Cheers,
Tony
