No need to support BFL when they reduce the hash rate on their rigs and jacked up the price on them. Never trust them anyway since only Avalon delivered. Everybody else who is selling ASICs like BFL are liars and trolls.

I think if you plug in their units you will increase your hashrate. The only problem is that you house may become ashes.

It's almost looking like Tom should have just stayed the course with bASIC. Well, unless he was incapable of pulling it off altogether.

At least he was right that BFL probably wouldn't ship in March. And maybe right to question the power efficiency BFL was claiming.

With the higher pricing and reduced performance, any asic that comes along will easier to consider. Well, other than concern for it being a fiasco like bASIC, or a possibly scam.

Someone ought to open a bet (at some place other than BetsOfBitcoin) on whether Avalon will ship Gen2 before BFL ships....anything.

Somebody explain to me how an item not yet built can be out of stock.

It was [probably] uneconomical and impossible to build for the quoted price.

10kilowatts...guess how many power supplies that will take....yikes.

Go over and read the shoutbox at BFL and tell me if the people discussing there will not be in a pysch 101 textbook someday.....

There are still people who believe that they will ever get anything from BFL? Shocked

This is indeed a paper waiting to be written.

Was it really that hard to make a working unit first then worry about the rest? People that still support them just make me laugh. Cheesy

That's so they don't have to honor long-term warranties. The pre-orders were all for Jalapenos, Little SCs, SCs, and MiniRigs and come with "lifetime" warranties. Lifetime being as long as the product is in production. Now there's a new line of products. All those "lifetime" warranties are now 1-year warranties.

This. Remember this when your BurnFireLight rig turns into a smoke machine.

the 1.5THs isnt out of stock. BFL simply cannot make it work cause they're a bunch of monkies over there.

Maybe it's because they banned private ownership of thermonuclear weapons? Wink

now THATS FUCKING AWESOME!

This made me laugh so much. Thank you.

Oh wow OMG I had a riot of a laugh at that. Maybe North Korea should buy some BFL units. Think of the mega-tonnes of explosive power they would wield!!!

You could put the part exchanged FPGA singles in them. People would still buy a 25MH/s (2 BTC a day) FPGA Mini Rig if it was "in stock".

Not sure where I'm going to get all the desk space required for my units with them being that size. Then again, I don't actually need to live in my apartment. Kind of wish I ordered the thermonuclear minirig before it went out of stock. I know a few fellas who would have enjoyed it.

See this was all part of the dog and pony show. Make it appear that you are in development of a product to specification and then when the truth comes out just plaster a sign that reads "OUT OF STOCK"
