This price sucks! It should be price calculated to deliver same btc/usd as a Jupiter did when they were released. This has no chance, unless btc is going to 3k each in a few months...

crappy... KNC were the leaders in price/performance, now there just cashing in like the rest. Why is the motto now that only HW manufactures are allowed to make any money in bitcoin mining?

+1

I'm also out.. too expensive. It 'll never going to ROI !

KnC is a capitalist company focused only on profit. It doesn't support open source projects.. They never showed us respect for being "valuable customers" any single time. They have been taking advantage on us with their high marketing skills since the first day.

Minning tech is getting better. Which is upping the difficulty. But not as much as the leap from fpga's to ASICS. That wont happen again. At least for a long time. The next would be minning using quantum computing. Which looks highly unlikely in the near future.
So dont expect to see major difficulty increases. Not many people will bother with minning. Most will just buy and sell. So there may be a future for mining. But, the way its looking right now. Just invest the 10K in buying bitcoin and you'll make more.

PM me offers if you want to order Neptune I am a prior customer and can order them

Same here, can't likely raise that kind of capital to get one myself but seems a waste of my abilities as a previous customer. It's a shame they're not make some in between models like previously as I bought a mercury previously and would of been happy to get just a new one with 2 cores, even better if they had stuck to there promise of making their hardware upgradable.

This is their supposed last consumer product as people will barley be able to run these in their homes. Looks like bitcoin is going to become centralized.

Yeah, they did say it would be for commercial only yesterday, or o'rama said so anyways. I'm not interested. I'm out.

If you think btc would go to 3k , wouldn't it be safe to buy btc rather than pre-order a miner?
Same dilemma as ever.

It would be nice to have a more concrete date.

Probably at current difficulty raise it won't ROI , but still it's nice to see some new pieces of hardware.
And from company that actually shipped a few miners , not ponies like others.

More than 5000-6000$ is excessive. Difficult raise to more than 1000 millions when I receive my jupiters difficult was 187 millions. +5x diff -5x hashrate Less than original price of Jupiter.

When 2000 Ghs cost 4999$ delivery date 2/2014 & only 1050w
http://www.blackarrowsoftware.com/store/prospero-x-3.html

5 Jupiter consumption more than 3000w. 30% less is 2100w

2 X3 are 2100w & 4000ghs

I'm jupiters owner.

Shipment begins in Q1/Q2 of 2014.

I'm not even going to waste my time calculating the difficulty level at the end of June 2014, however I'm sure there will be no profit in this setup.

"I bird in the hand is worth two in the bush", in bitcoin terms maybe ten in the bush.

Just got this email.
I'm not convinced that mining hardware will ever lower down to an appropriate price point.
