for the trolls that keep bringing up how BFL is going to slaughter AM next week with all these orders, I present a BFL order chart:

boy, just look at that competition go... yawn.

Nobody has even made such a claim here so you're arguing with yourself.
Now that you bring it up though, has AM received any of the chips from the new batch yet? If not, then the initial batch was only for 50 Th/s according to AM but I've also heard they had 66 Th/s as well. So, unless that new batch has started to arrive, AM can't increase their hash rate above either 50 TH/s or 66 Th/s. I believe they've had their hash rate as high as 46 Th/s so far. At least 3.5 TH/s have been used for USBs and at least 0.15 Th/s of Blades have been sold. With BFL shipping Minirigs and AM not having the ability to bring any further hashing power online, BFL would certainly be bringing more hashing power online.
Also, like I pointed out, a single person could quite easily assemble 10 Minirigs a day, which is 150 TH/s a month. AM's incoming batch of chips is 100 Th/s. So, even if AM do get their new batch in time, and bring all 100 Th/s online by the end of the month, BFL could have overtaken them in shipping. AM would then be waiting on the second half of the batch for their final 100 Th/s, yet BFL would be able to ship the remaining 70 Th/s of Minirig orders.
So please explain, how AM are going to bring tens of Th/s online per day when they don't even have the chips in hand to do so at the moment.
Or the facility to keep it running, even at it's current relatively meager speed. This is what blows my noodle out. The deployment of that much TH/s is no way going to be less complex than what seems lately (and earlier) to be unstable. There still hasn't been a solid time of 50gh/s being run, much less 66 or 150 or 300. The network will reach those speeds.
Then we account for the avalon chips (soon to be delivered? probably) there is 500k - 1 million of them and multiple groups building against them. so another 150-300 TH/s there.(ish)
Now BFL . . . yes everybody is mad, yes they delivered later than expect. . .but cut through the hate, and look at what they've actually done lately. They chewed through 3500 chips in a matter of days. And are receiving 1000s of boards to assemble this week. 70,000 more chips in the pipe. Another 200-300 Th/s. MR alone is big. and they are bulk selling raw chips as well. Expecting to catch up their orders mid september. You can't just dismiss that if your being analytical. Don't trust the bfl "list" it's complete bs, most people aren't on it
kncminer. Well have to see what happens with them, but if they land within 3 months of their estimation, and hold that they have 1000 orders. another 200-300 Th/s.
so friedcat needs to higher a village of engineers real quick. and figure out the stability issues.
on top of which, I see no substantiation or transparency of fact within AM. I'm amazed how "faith" based this whole adventure is
Maybe I'm just not capable of that kind of belief . . .
