I've never tried, so obviously not at present.
But unless I'm going blind here, I don't see a bga chip on that pic?
Please correct me if I'm wrong, like. My point still stands about openhardware for hobbyist systems.

EDIT - Ah - I do see a BGA chip in that video of his, but that is not the accelerator shown in the attachment. Infact I have no idea what it is... It's plugged into a CS530, not a CS540, so it isn't the accelerator itself. You can see the 030 and 68882 of the CS530 in the upper left if you pause the video.
Again, either way, these hobbyist level prototypes should not be manufactured and sold like they're a fully fledged company delivering a tried and tested product. I'm not saying it won't continue, i'm just saying it isn't ideal, and i'm giving my opinion on what is ideal.
