OH MY GOD!!!
this must be so painful for you guys are are now eating your words....
let me think - vaporware - scammers, when I have time I'll go back through the thread and repost all the accusations...
here's my new machine sitting in my office in West Chester, Pa.

Myself less-than-thrilled about MAT, indeed, I tried to find out real word-on-the-street news and updates from ANYONE about MAT's delivering (or not delivering) any machines here. Response results: totally zero-nada-zilch-zip. Off-topics and unfounded "Scam" accusations (other than founded on hot air and hearsay, but I can do that myself): loads-n-loads, megatons of garbage, but not one single usable bit of information on the actual situation and on whether or not anyone got a box delivered back around the end-of-Q3 deadline!
Everyone out here has accused my of "singing MAT's praise" and similar, just for critically investigating the situation and trying to get some REAL answers. Well-well.
Yours is actually the FIRST USABLE report that I see on anything-MAT and on MAT boxes actually existing -- guess that I could have talked to you right inside your own pool message board, had I known that you're in on those MAT pre-orders ;)
Marc still deserves LOTS of discredit for their amateurish handling the entire situation, for not responding to e-mails, for sitting on pre-order money and stonewalling buyers, and for trying to "sit out" as much of these delays as possible, and then some, which are faults in their own sphere (not mine).
This is not the way to do business, and they will have to improve on that or shut down their ridiculous two-person weekend operation altogether. They have NOT DELIVERED as promised, and those full-mouthed promises were B-I-G. This is their mistake, and legally it is misrepresentation. Very disappointed to see that this "unregulated" (which should actually be a good thing!) business attracts so many sore losers, con-artists, unemployed who want to get rich quick, as well as unprofessional moonlighters not delivering anything useful.
Yes, these are "experimental" products -- but, then again, why are Zeus miners all over the place, delivered on time, running nicely etc? And why not, AT THE VERY LEAST, alleviate the other troubles and hiccups by reliable and reasonable customer communications?!
This would go a long way in preventing these unnecessary "scammer" accusations. Also, their pathetic attempt to "secure" themselves by the kind of General Terms they are using (KnC-style) is quite telling. "Unfair contract terms" at it's best :))
BTW, was yours a "Batch-1" delivery? (I "am" in Batch 2 myself :( but at least things seem to be moving a bit at MAT now)...
