PS: everything is on schedule now, our target is to be the first.
I am not the first to raise this question but I still would like to ask it. I checked
www.avalon-asics.com to see what the 'count down clock' said. At the time I checked it was a little over 6 days. So lets look a little closer. If we have 1 day for assembly, how long will it be in transit from the assemblers to the Avalon shipping facilities? If the assemblers are close then they could pick up the assembled product. Otherwise it will take 1 to 3 days, maybe longer, to ship to Avalon for final assembly and shipment to the customer. Now how long will the product burn in be, 24 hours?
So that leaves virtually no time for quality control testing not to mention SRRC certification but Chinese companies don't seam to comply with their own countries laws when shipping outside their boarders. It appears to me that the Avalon development team is relaying solely on computer simulations of their product to be 100% accurate. Computer simulations are never wrong, right? With only days to do full quality control testing of the hardware and software purchasers of Avalon's products can expect a high failure rate and a large warranty return rate. Not to mention long shipping delays from country to country and lack of replacement parts to fix warranty issues. At which time you will not be eligible for a refund and stuck with an inferior product. But what can I say, China is home to the inferior product.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94HTIueOuDQOn Avalon's website they claim to have 10+ years ASIC experience. It's now time for Avalon to tell their customers and the community which Avalon employees have ASIC experience and how much each Avalon employee is claimed to have. But I suspect that full disclosure of claims made on their website will be an issue that will be avoided. I surmise they will claim that a Master's Degree is equivalent to 6 years experience. Or maybe if it takes someone 10 years to complete a 6 year program that could be counter as 10 years experience. Can one really claim taking a university class as experience? Not in my book and not on a job application. Could it be that someone is drinking their own Jonestown Kool Aid?
With less than a week to the proclaimed shipment date there is no reason not to show pictures of a PCB or chassis as Avalon's only competitor has done. Unless they don't have a PCB or chassis to show, which is entirely plausible.
Too bad that China's target is to be first (inferiority complex?), rather than America's where quality is job 1.
Now queuing 300 test dummies.

Now queuing 300 test dummies, a sacrifice to appease the gods I've angered by continuing to troll this thread... maybe they won't edit the hell out of this post as
they promised to do.
