OMG they should include a coffee mug with the coffee warmer. Or at least as a 1BTC addon? It's a perfect combo!

Maybe for 1 or 2 orders, but those ordering 8-pack upgrades aren't going to want that many mugs I'll bet.

They could use them if BFL incorporates an interface to dock the mug with the pump of any cooling subsystem, with the coffee being cycled as the coolant. Perhpas, 50% hash rate increases from the caffeine alone. One caveat: users drinking too much of the coffee may see hash rates appearing to slow down.

But seriously, it would just be kinda cool to have one BFL mug.

Is it me, or does BFL have a weird fixation on coffee? There's the Jalapeno of course, but it also seems that about half the pics on their website involve a coffee cup somehow. I'm not prone to conspiracy theories, but I dunno, it just seems strange. Maybe the manufacture of bitcoin mining hardware is just a stepping stone toward domination of world coffee markets?  ;)

You will know when you see a $30,000 BFL espesso machine offered next quarter.

Traded in 1 of my singles for 8 jalapenos and my other 3 for SC singles. Did this just in case the jalapenos come out first to get them asap, and also because I just wanted some of em to play with :)
