I did attend that same meeting, monday. And can vouch for the truthfullness, objectivety and accuracy of Bitcoinoramas account of the whole thing. Allthough i left a couple of hours before he did, i was there for about 3 hours. They were very open, honest and proffesional.
I especially enjoyed talking to Marcus, since he sort of represented the "brains" behind our miners. I really get the feeling that he's itching do so much more with theese chips and all the tech he has att his disposal. But at the moment having to prioritize the september deadline. To further the analogy put forth earlier about this being a formula 1 race, Marcus is comparing this to building a F1 car. Why bother with a go-kart = Fpga when you can build the best "Formula 1" asic miner. So thats what they have just started to do with Saturn and Jupiter at current specs, and OrSoc are no where near done with what they can achieve.
That eludes to the kinds of margins they have at the moment with this 28nm chip, and bodes well for the future of knc products and customers.

Bro as I already said I really do appreciate your work, and I'm more than impressed by what I'm reading especially when you describe Marcus' way of working 
Till now I found this two info the most informative among all:
[cut]
.... In the interim as the final ASIC design is already being bid over by the chip manufactures to tender the job by September.
The chip manufacturer I believe is chosen today. ...
And when I read this:
Yes the chip is going from FPGA to ASIC in production immediately, After the first prototype is made they are out the door with very little margin for error. Balls are swinging low.
a shiver run down my spine

Thanks for the info. I have high hopes these guys set a new trend for professional and transparent ASIC miner production.
+1
i think, it is the first really proffesional and experienced eletronic company which is only entering the bitcoin market very well supported by KNC...

Thank you very much for taking the time to do this.
Excellent info.

Wow so they just picked the chip manufacturer today?

Very thank you

Ok, cool, we look forward to some of your photos, a picture is worth a thousand words they say ...thanks

Since nonone else asked, Did you get to meet Lisbeth?
No, but I kid you not, I met a Mexican girl on her way from Stockholm to the 'sleepy town of Uppsala' on her way to pay homage!
Another famous Swede you may, or may not know about, and like Satoshi Yakamoto, no one knows for sure if it's one or many behind the mask...
