I am sure they are not likely to reveal this number but since they have been batching their promised delivery dates I believe it is fair to assume that they are expecting deliveries in approximately the sizes of their batches
(2) How many 1.2 THs systems did they sell to customers.
If I were them there is no way I would publish this information. BFL haven't and I doubt any other manufacturer has
(3) Are they ordering logic boards from Bitmine or are they creating their own.
Again seems like a trade secret to me. If I were them I would buy a few boards for the initial machines and then have the rest made here from that design to cut down on their shipping costs
(4) How many logic boards do they have waiting to receive chips?
This seems like a trade secret to me but given the minimal costs of circuit boards (and the minimal on costs when producing large run) and the costs of delay it would not surprise me if they had enough to meet at least 3 months of demand
(5) How many cases and power supplies do they have ready?
Since they are buying these off the shelf I doubt this is a rate limiting step
(6) Who is their assembler and how many people do they have in staff?
What business is this of yours again it seems to me that they batched their production and it is either limited by supplies of labor or chips either way if the first machines are 2 weeks late expect the last machines to be no more than two weeks late
(7) How many people do they currently have in staff?
If, as you suspect, they are subbing the work out who cares?
Really now that they have delivered multiple machines (including one for review) I think it is fair to say that:
1) They exist and are not just rip off artists
2) They are reasonably competent engineers with some very poor skills at customer service
3) Their delivery of the 1.2TH machines is being slowed by delivery of the chips which is beyond their control (although yes it would have been better if they had checked once we started noticing the delays from bitmine)
4) Their are an awful lot of trolls in this forum who are even more dissatisfied now that AMT are proven real and they missed out on early orders than they were when they had hope that they were a con
5) We would all be allot better off hoping that AMT would make, say, a weekly blog post about status than creating all this nonsense on this forum.
WTF! It's not like what they are doing needs to be secret! These folks are just assembling the stuff, no rocket science here. We don't expect AMT to innovate. We expect them to assemble the Bitmine stuff in a timely manner.
Look, customers need to know if they are able to meet their delivery dates. By not communicating anything, we aren't given a warm fuzzy feeling that they can meet their dates.
We know that they are delayed because Bitmine is delayed. However, I want to know how fast they can deliver when they receive the Bitmine chips! Is that too much to ask?!
My requests for information are perfectly reasonable.
