I wonder how customers successfully winning legally against the n companies behind this fits into this (draft of) a plan. Maybe it doesent. Maybe customers stand a canche only because they failed to make a workable PCB by the end of the year, only because they were 2 weeks late. God blesses those difficult PCB.
HF, looking forward for some sweet marketing announcement from your side, its starting to getting boring here.
Going over the same thing is getting old.
As for the PCB, I'm not sure why they seem to be having so many issues, KnC and "others" have demonstrated that the PCB is the
easiest part of the ASICs. I've even read that documentation they released on how their system would work and even though I'm no engineer in ICs it was pretty clear when it came to describing the functionality. Also it seems that there is enough information for others to start on a design of their own PCB if HF ends up selling just chips.
Maybe the "design team" did not KISS, did not have the experience/skill to develop a IC (perhaps this is their first ASIC?) and may not have optimized the ASIC design in the best way possible, causing other issues requiring major "corrective" components on the PCB to ensure the chip will at least produce 400Ghs.
Then they also blame the substrate for delays but no other ASIC designers seems to have that problem... I have not looked into the entire process of building an IC but I thought that the substrate is part of the process where they get the wafer made... or are those big silicon wafers that we see just flat on both sides and has to be sent to another factory to be cut and packaged?
The more information that comes out is just showing how inexperienced they are in the IC and PCB production process as well.
Could be the reason that they changed the MPP from chips that other companies would make PCBs for to just sending the whole chip with their PCB as it may reveal how much they messed up in making the ASIC and have no choice but to compensate with the PCB design. Who knows, I'm not an EE, this is just what I've observed and these are just IMHO.
On another note, I may be able to still have access to my skip tracing account (Choice point/Accurint/etc) but it would cost (from when I last checked years ago) $75 just to get phone numbers and addresses, age, relatives and what not in a general search, which is unlimited for just one month. If a full report is run, which includes any public record of criminal history or anything like that (including all known associates and family all the way to the 3rd degree) would cost at least $25-$35.
Lawyers also have access to this but if people think it may help I might be able to provide this to people who want to get more information on these people. If so, some donations to cover the costs would be nice although if I come up with nothing there would be no refund...
