Considering how hard it is to mine 1.5 btc, I have serious doubt about their product.
I wouldn't preorder. I will wait and see what exactly the product is.

Absolutely not, it's just a clone of something that already exists, unless they can convince people otherwise.
This is little bit shady indeed.
also they too rambling, looks not transparent. just let's see what next. i still doubt to order this.

If it doesn't make sense to you, then it's not for you. Also, didn't 21 say that they haven't even shown off their software yet? Let's not be hasty.
Agree, the software could be something neat but then again why wouldn't they reveal more prior to the pre-order phase? Is it because they're in fear of disappointing potential customers?

No. It doesn't make any sense buying that product for $400.
I was expecting something better to be honest. It's still not clear what this machine will be able to do other than mining, their FAQ says it's for devs to learn and develop and sell digital goods, but develop what, sell what digital goods and to whom? In what platform? There's just too much uncertainty at this point. I'd avoid putting a pre-order until someone else has done so and put a review out there after getting the machine. By the way, all this madness on Reddit seems unjustified. It's almost like someone is trying to manipulate the vote system in order to promote it.
