Come on Commodore, I want a retro computer with new Herdware in it. Not some crippled linux phone.

You can also sign up for the waitlist for an additional $50 off the price at preorder, which begins June 30. Not sure if they'll be checking that your email address is on the waitlist to use the code, but it's a generic code.
Done! You can use the code CHICKENLIPS at checkout on June 30th for a total of $100 off!
