you would think that Google could answer that 

I'm so sad. I bet what they will start after first human in  MARS event .

Still no "Luke unit" yet?
I'll check back in another two weeks?

Fixed it for Josh.

LOL ... joke of the day ...

Another one of Josh's accounts here and on Reddit:

YES THEY DID!

Josh Zerlan had everybody believing that he had full control of EMC up to the 11th/11th hour when it was revealed that BFL did indeed own it since at least Q4, 2012.

When the vice president of a company starts talking about himself in the third person, it's time to locks the doors, for his company is about to be overrun by nothing less than refund request, sticking any motherfuckin' offer on the table up its ass.

I bet that come Monday morning BFL will be in serious damage control mode. Can't wait to read how Josh is going to spin this revelation, hoping like hell he denies that Nitrowolf is him, for then it'll really be stuck up his ass.

All those years of role playing finally has infected Josh's brain, for he honestly believes his nyms are not him, and visa versa.

It looks like Customer Grade Chips are now the B grade chips,   Did the Farm use up all the A grade chips?

Perhaps you missed the sarcasm.

Well technically they don't really need to ship it.  They can imply that a shipping label would have been used has it been necessary to ship but otherwise in no uncertain terms would they not have shipped had they not actually had the unit for sale to a customer.  Do we need to revisit the Luke-jr "shipped" semantics thread.

Thanks to EclipseMC, they lose dollars on every hash, but make it up in volume.

Just when you thought they couldnt make this soap opera any better about BFL. Wow! I am amazed at how they are still open for business.

 

You are the main reason I love this community 

Express delivery? They'll dub it Quantum Sonic Delivery, marketing such as QSD charging a premium for the service.

What happened to their promised leading efficiency of something like 0.4W/GH  

Meanwhile I am sitting here with my miners at (under) 0.9$/GH and am really bummed that I didn´t ride the butterflylabs train to josh/Sonnytown /sarcasm

This time only a little more than half a year´s delay?
That means next time it might be only 4 months delay, which constitutes express delivery for BFL.

Also:

Officially "shipped" as a customer unit.

But first the Luke Unit must be deployed.

Jody will "mail" one out to Wired, then one to Reddit, then one to Gizmodo....

The first customers bumping up from their 2012 Single orders should see a Monarch around September....2015.  Just in time to refuse delivery and then get both no refund and no miner.

Oh come on we all know how BFL shipping works... Maybe a few units here and there then some sort of parts delay.  A few more units then another delay etc...

lolz, 2$ per gh/s is their compensation? thats like giving penalty...

Yay! This time they're only 3 months late *sarcasm*

I'd turn down even $0.01/gh/s if it was from BFL. Not worth man.

To be fair $1.97/gh/s is a great deal considering...  the competition is at least $17.50/gh and 2.5w/gh

Kinda hard to believe that horse shit is still up there, Jesus Christ they have balls.

Explain to me how paying over twice the going rate for $/GHs right now is a reward for "patience and loyalty".

Am I missing something ?

I won't kill the messenger, but this is a pointless thread lol. BFL has ruined so many people's trust in mining.

You can buy a habanero which runs at 650 gh/s for about 1BTC.

2 S3 for 900 gh/s is 1.1 btc.

BFL is so sad...

" BFL announces monarch shipping" that's like saying Gilligan finally got off the island.

role on floor laughing my ass off

what does roflmao mean?

Take this how ever you choose this will likely interest people who have orders already.

While PCB performance specifications have come in above the 600GH we originally projected, we have not yet hit the 1TH/s per PCB mark that we set for ourselves based on the strength of the underlying ASIC chip. We have achieved much higher speeds on test boards, but in order to be able to ship now we have stabilized the board at 700GH/s with power efficiency of 0.70 W/GH (+/- 10%). While we will continue to pursue the 1TH version of the Monarch for subsequent delivery, we want

to get the best product we can out to you now. Shipping of Monarchs will begin next week.

Here is an image of the Monarch ready for shipment to customers right now.
(Please note the form factor with water cooling instead of air cooling)



As a reward for customers' patience and loyalty, we are adjusting the price of the 700 GH/s boards to $1,379 (ONLY $1.97/GH) and will be providing rebates/refunds for the difference. (Does not include cloud mining or Mining by the GH)

For those interested in running cards in power efficiency mode, here is a chart of power consumption at different speeds (@220V):

GH   Total W   W/GH
550   339   0.62
600   368   0.61
650   432   0.66
700   471   0.70
730   530   0.73
780   609   0.78
Specific details about updates to customer orders will be emailed and posted to each customers’ dashboards as boards are ready to be shipped.
