Why are we still bumping this thread and asking if it's legit or not. A look at the website should tell you it's a scam immediately.  We are not in the bfl/avalon era anymore. Time to wake up people...

Clearly it is not legit.  Unlike the live UnicronHasher which was featured on the cover of Bloomberg's businessweek magazine....

I hope my preorder went through for that.

Hopefully your pre-order was for a subscription to Bloomberg's businessweek magazine because if it was either of the former you might be disappointed  Grin

It was for the unicornhasher, hence the subquote. Duh.

Wrong, copyright does not need any copyright marking or registration, it is automatically implied. http://www.ipo.gov.uk/c-auto.htm

While you can use someone else's work in your own, your work has to be substantially different (trans-formative) from the original. This is not.

Which is why I said it varies by country, and that I could be wrong.

Not unless they've copyrighted a photo ...

Besides, BFL and KNC did the same things, they took a photo of a chip and then CAD/photoshopped, until they had actual designs.

So if they have not paid the copyright then it is still illegal but that's okay because other have done something similar.

Reminds me of the girl who sold her virginity on the Internet but claimed she was not a prostitute because she only done it once Smiley

No, all i was saying was unless it's copyright protected, there's no wrong being done. Simply taking a photoshopped image from one place and chopping it yourself, isn't wrong. Laws vary by country of course. If it is copyright protected, the image needs the stamp, as does the sourcepage.

But even still, taking a copyright protected image and modifying it.. is different than trying to use the exact same image.

Look at the home page

Then look at this:

Huh.  That does increase my skepticism a bit.
