Very curious and itching to pull the trigger on the 8-board tower myself, but this thread has raised some questions and concerns I have over RMAs, and the non-guarantee of 48-52GHs. Waiting patiently for answers to a PM sent to cryptx.

For the sake of curiosity, how long did it take before you got a response ?

 No response yet. Patiently waiting. Can only assumed they are slammed with their own mine and/or waiting for stock... but... yeah. Patiently waiting for a response.

Man, the Butterfly Labs tale is really starting to look like a good movie script for "Boiler Room 2.0"

Woo! Getting excited about this ! Looking to pick a few up.

Appears to be an unnecessary knee-jerk reaction for something that is not a genuine problem.

Luke, I know we don't see eye-to-eye on things, but respectfully, I don't see any benefit to this proposal.

EDIT: BurtW, and so you did, post #12. Guess that's why the term was on muh brain. Cheers.

Well, I suppose I should cross off HashFast as a company to preorder from after reading the last few pages... *sigh*

PM me if there is any way my experiences with Butterfly Labs can be of help to you. I can't make any promises due to my present schedule, but would be interested in testifying in court for you at my expense.

Let me know how things go, and what dates you are likely to be in court if you need another voice.

 That's actually really swell of you. Didn't know you were involved with charity work.

 All silliness aside, it would be nice to ask your new-found friends to make a contribution from their "charity fund" for Thanksgiving at Satoshi Forest.

EDIT: With respect to your Youtube video link, and I say this convivially, you certainly are a strange bird.

 All things considered, that is not very good for a Gen2 :/

 Josh, your implication of pedophillia or child-molestation goes way beyond the bounds of deceny and good taste (I mean, come on, are you that far-gone that you can't see this ?), and as the Chief Operating Officer of Butterfly Labs, a company that has customers in this community, there is no excuse for your vile speculation and lies.

 You are a blight on the human race, and you coming down with bone marrow cancer would be a gift from God.

 I'd say "you should be ashamed" of yourself, but we all know you find pleasure in trolling and fucking people over.

 Please just fuck off and die.

 Painfully.

Man, I really want 4 or 8 of these guys, but with the price of BTC going crazy, I'm having a damn hard time pulling the trigger even with the price cut argh

Sexy looking gear.

 I don't want to speak ill of Phin. I do have some concern, however, about his sudden change-of-heart and the backstory behind it.

 Something just doesn't feel right about that "relationship" to me, like Phin is being threatened in some way we aren't aware of.

 It's not normal for a songbird like him to suddenly stop singing his tune.

No. Bitcoin doesn't care about your race, ethnicity, or sex.

It's an irrelevant category IMO.

 Your hash-rate gives me a nerd-boner.

 Please be aware that you could be buying into a bubble presently. The price is going crazy and $20k is a considerable risk at this time, IMO.

 Balls of steel on you to be sure.

 No.

The Ministry "Sphinctour" was kick-ass. God-bless Al Jourgensen for kicking Heroin.

 Coming from the Prince of Lies himself, Josh "Inaba" Zerlan, you have every right talking about the heights of asshattery as you wrote the book on that behavior.

 This post only continues to illustrate that behavior in the classic Zerlan fashion of having zero self-awareness.

 Josh, if you are trying to intimidate me into silence by continually doxing ( a desperation move ) with privileged information gleaned from your customer database from our previous business dealings, just come over here to Texas and put a bullet in the back of my head already. You know where I live.

 You don't scare me.
 
 You are quite possibly the most pathetic creature I have ever had the displeasure of coming to know in this lifetime.

 Speaking of telling the truth, when have any of your shipping estimates been truthful or accurate ?

 Josh Zerlan and Sonny Vleisides don't give a fuck about what you want. They have your money, and recent history has clearly shown they don't care about refunding your orders in direct violation of Federal Trade Commission regulations.
