Unconfirmed.  However, even from a legit business standpoint, their delays span over 7 months now, with no firm deadline in place.

You're either trolling or not bothering to read before posting.  There are more than 10k posts and 500+ threads on the topic.  Go ask there please.

hmm, so the BFL in people's sig is Butterfly Labs abbreviation.

Guess where I found the link: ads on THIS VERY FORUM! This forum should stop advertising for them.

I just found the disclaimer at the bottom of the pages:

Quote
Pre-order Terms: Bitforce SC (ASIC) products are in final stage development with initial shipping scheduled for the last half of April 2013. Products are shipped according to placement in the order queue, and delivery may take 2 months or more after order. All sales are final.

Can anyone tell me if this has changed? Like did it say "March" last month and "February" the month before? because in two days we will have reached the "last half of April 2013".
