You still have nothing eh?

What exactly do you have? To be so defensive of this guy who shouts his mouth off and tells people to FO when he doesn't like what they say?


I have thousands of angry BFL customers.
I have BFL who admits they purposefully insult and denigrate the Bitcoin community because they believe it inflates their pre-orders with noobs.
I have alternatives to BFL mining products that have similar or better bang for the buck.
What else do I need? Popcorn.

BTW, you should bump the other two BFL threads that fell off the front page too. Otherwise it might look like BFL has become irrelevant to the Bitcoin mining scene.

The Custom Hardware forum is awash in a sea of ASICMiner and Avalon threads...

Ok I'll leave you with that thought - you are clearly an arse.

It was real but:

No, SgtSpike wasn't suppose to get an email for that shipment, it went out accidentally.

So no shipment.

Nope, you can hang on to your smug smile for a while longer...

BFL already put a ton of cash into my pocket by siphoning off millions of dollars that would have been spent on raising the network hash rate. I get to keep my smug little smile forever.  Cheesy

Now that the Avalon and ASICMiner waves are here, it does't really matter what BFL promises anymore. Even if BFL ships 50 Jala's every single day (unlikely), that is only 1.25TH a week which isn't enough to move the difficulty needle anymore now that there is 100TH currently and another 100TH due in the next 2 months. BFL failed to capitalize while Avalon and ASICMiner continue to deliver the hash rate.

You sound just like PuertoLibre - are you it?

You still have nothing eh?
Do your best to keep these last couple of BFL threads on the front page so people who Google Butterfly Labs can see what the bitcoin community thinks of them.
You certainly have your work cut out for you with all the Avalon and ASICMiner group buy threads churning like crazy.  Cheesy

delivering a product 1 year after u paid for it is ok and just fine with u ?
I am not stupid enough to pre-order a product that I haven't seen at least a prototype demonstrated or reviewed. I am interested in a klondike board but I will not place and order until I see a working prototype tested and reviewed, same goes for BFL.

Good to see several being prepped for shipping.  Let's hope this becomes a daily thing and ramps up.

Even though it only shows the 5GH/s cases on flat surfaces, each one is potentially a case with a fan in it, and that's the main thing, it also shows that BFL is making photographs of product, instead of just shipping product. Thus exposing the shill claims of trolls here as massively over optimistic.

FTFY.

BFL customers have already been screwed. The only metric that matters now is if BFL can actually contribute a meaningful amount to the network hash rate. If they cannot, then the slice of the pie their customers can capture is too small to matter.
As for BFL actually shipping in bulk, I will believe it when I see that their backlog is not 90 days (+ 2 weeks ad infinitum) long

Judging from BFL's record of inaccurate statements, I think anyone dealing with them should take a 'believe it when I see it' approach when considering the company. I mean it's all well and good for a Jalapeno to ship, but if you look at the bigger picture, they still haven't shipped .5% of a product that people already paid for almost a year ago.

I'm happy for anyone who finally got their units. But I think it's a bit premature to see the sub 50 units (I guess) as a big success that should alleviate any fears or encourage more pre-orders.

For every one jalapeno that has been shipped there are what, 5,000 units not shipped? At least a 1000 customers who haven't received a product for every one that has.  That's a complete guess, don't care enough to get the exact numbers, but it has to be somewhere around there.

Does anyone know how much a Jalapeno, if received right now, would earn a day in dollars? Just curious.

http://www.coinish.com/calc/

Accounting for downtime, pool fees and difficulty increases, around $24 a day for a total of $1500

People are naturally excited when their Jalapeno ships and can't wait to burst onto Bitcointalk and say it.  After almost a year of waiting and many months where some customers have lost all hope of receiving what they paid for it's okay for them to be jumping with joy.  Now, hopefully we'll have one thread for each device category and people can post their shipping and receiving dates there, with links back to http://bfl.ptz.ro/

I wonder how long they will last for the end user if they tested them a little too long. I guess it doesn't matter because I'm sure they have a great return policy. I hear it's the same policy as Best Buy. lol

Return policy sucks, but the warranty is great!  It's 1 year!*

*from the date of purchase

you mean the receiving policy sucks too, right?

About $25/day per Dustcoin.
