It is my understanding that they are a Chinese company as that is where they are operating.

No one ever answered your question, buthere is what I found:

July 18
We have had our IC design company registered at Shenzhen, China. The name of our company is "bitfountain"

We also have signed the confidential contract with the IC manufacturer and got the process library necessary for correct DC synthesis.

found here: http://www.bitcointrading.com/forum/asic-mining/the-asicminer-project-status/


so no, they are located in china and using  "bitfountain" (guess they don't care there's another company named that and it's china. ..)
there is no website, the only contact known publicly is this forum and supposedly some people have friedcats email address.

I've seen there is a Bitfountain company in new york but it is a app developer company.
I am asking about if ASICMINER's Bitfountain is located in the US to see how could it be impacted by the new Taxing Guidelines from the United States regarding Bitcoin Miners and if it could lower the revenue of the company, not only being impacted by electricity and other costs but now also by high US taxes. Something that other competitors located somewhere else do not have at the moment.

Cheers,
