I understand the money problem, trust me on this! in the mean time, what else can I do?
1 ) Let people forwarding to others the samples and selling them to each other?
2) I can avoid the discussion and let the lawyers in the back ground doing their job (never end well)
3) Or I can come here and open a discussion, complain when something is too obviously wrong ... and take mild action to try to stop it.

I like 3 Better ...

overall, I try to be open ...don't take it as a stick ... very likely, Bob will be fine. we have full tracability, we can figure out who sold the ES at the beginning.

In the case of Bob, I appreciate the Dude, he is a nice Dude ...

I don t know how to formulate it ... just stay away from ES commerce, it is wrong!

ES commerce make some very unhonnest Dudes somewhere very rich, and you guys are the one paying for this ...

Without the fear of seeing the samples dissapear and being sold, I could probably sample more the OC community ...

Let's close the topic, I think all was said.

Then you shouldn't have named him and made the comments you did.
Open discussion is fine but when you name individuals that crossed the line in my opinion.
As I told you last November, you want to send samples, I'll make sure they get to the right people who will put them to work.
You may think that when I talk about the work we do it's an abstract thing but it isn't.
Just in this thread is a poster who has stage 5 cancer and may not be with us in a year.
It is very personal to me. I have met him and his daughter.
If you had met them as I have then you would understand what drives me in this.
It is people, not hardware, that matters here to me.
The hardware just helps make the goals doable.

For those who are selling their ES CPUs on OCBay, be aware that we will purchase them, and trace back to who ever originally signed up for them.

This is something you don t want to do , I am asking nicely and friendly that this does not happen ... Selling an ES can really get people into trouble, it goes under the laws of "Industrial Espionage " and few other nasty stuff you don t want to be cut under.

Please guys! be smart!

I wasn't upset with your orginal post, just with the post where you named boble..
That took it from a discussion to a personal thing.
