if memory serves me correctly (which i hope it does since i was in charge
of the last order) we ordered 5 units, there is a break at 2-4 then 5-19
and so on.  i would check the site for current pricing.  i love my soekris
box for two (main) reasons:

1)it is low power and does it's job very well running OBSD/pf

2)used it a tool to teach myself the internals of pxebooting and network
install's.  (which i will hopefully put to good use on render farms in the
future).

I'd say there is a pretty high level of experience w/ these boxen on the
list so i'm sure others will reply and be more than willing to help out.
