Did anyone do bank CC charge back?
Promptly requested a refund with office@bfl. I imagine there will be no need to escalate that far in this particular instance...

I just tried it. Goes all the way to the final page prior to my account being charged. It's still active.
"Thank you for your purchase! Your order # is: 1000740xx. You will receive an order confirmation email with details of your order and a link to track its progress." Paypal is still active. Amusingly, I just spent $308 on a 5GH/s Jally + std shipping. Thought I was fired. Guess I'll go ask for a refund now ? ----------------------------------- Purchase Details ----------------------------------- Description:5 GH/s Bitcoin Miner, Item #:BF0005G Unit price:274.00 USD Qty:1 Amount:$274.00 USD Description:Shipping, Item #:Standard Shipping - Only Unit price:34.00 USD Qty:1 Amount:$34.00 USD Subtotal: $308.00 USD

You have malware on your computer. I think your bitcoins will disappear soon. How do you figure ?

My apartment has a single ethernet jack that I use for my desktop, and I am not permitted to have a router or switch.
Lolwut ?! Is that actually in your renters agreement ? That's an absurd and technically idiotic stipulation What's preventing you, for example, setting up a firewall on that one ethernet port and running your own LAN segment on your own switch ?

Dude... WTF man ?!

Dave, thanks for the update. bkpduke, sorry for spacing out; I do recall seeing that video generating nonces (Dave has a voice that, to me, sounds nothing like his Avatar pic. Isn't it funny how that works ? People not sounding how you picture them in your head ? Figured Dave to have a deeper voice, rather than his actual silky soft smoothness)

And the worst part is, after he fucked us, he said "Don't worry, I'll do it again harder in October!"
No. The worst part is that there will be people willing to give him money in October after he pulled this stunt.

This endorsement feels cheap, shallow, and whore-ish.
I'm really not a fan of all these pre-order schemes in Bitcoin space, and am calling "Shenanigans" on you, and anyone else delivering 28nm before 2014.
Make me a believer.

The thing that's stopping me from asking for a refund is the collateral damage it might cause to Steamboat. I've already paid for chips and assembly and know that Steamboat has already spent money to acquire components in good faith.
How can I ask for a refund under those circumstances, knowing that Steamboat is completely blameless for Avalon not following through ?
It's not an easily rectifiable situation.

I really hate to be a turd in the punch-bowl like this, but I'm crying high and holy bullshit on anyone delivering 28nm and below before 2014.

Mafia after us. ... A bitcoin conference is pretty big one so they won't be find to me.
It's a little bit telling that Yifu is able to shmooze it up with Bitcoin luminaries such as Josh Zerlan of Butterfly Labs and Sam of KNC at a recent conference... Because surely if there were people after Yifu, they wouldn't think to look for him at a public event in NYC.

The proto rig is rock-solid after 24 hours of running at the new chip.conf.
These asics are curious critters - if you have a bad chip on a board, software will disable the chip in config. This causes adjacent chips to see a little more power and therefore get a slight overclock. For example most chips are producing around 1.5 - 1.6 GH/s actual nonces. But some chips are at 2.1 GH/s. In this way, even with some duds the full rig is producing 410 - 415GH/s actual accepted shares. Even Slush stats have caught up and show average hashrate over 400G at the pool.
I think this is unique - it seems most mining hardware is rated at a certain hashpower, but true output is typically less than promised.
Any chance you can post a CGMiner (or whichever miner you are using) screenshot of a 400gH/s product in action ? Genuinely curious, and excited with this product offering. Also, as I understand it, the products becoming available will be allocated to your 100TH endeavor first ? Does this mean that August orders will not ship until you have all 100TH online for yourself, or will the products be divided between customers and your mine if it looks like production delays may prevent your initial 100TH allocation arriving on schedule ? Cheers.

I can't imagine what Steamboat must be going through right now.
Let's hope we all didn't just get fucked by Yifu.

don't you got better things to do like writing code mr. software engineer than waste time with some first-class-riding booze-drinking "pr guy" like me? anyhow, update is live on main page. http://avalon-asics.com You have to admit, with your cavalier attitude, you had it coming. How about shipping out the millions of dollars of chips many have pre-ordered with you, and start winning back some trust from the community.

Haha ! That's AWESOME. Thanks for posting the video.

Regardless of the outcome the lack of any communication seals it for me. Yifu signed into his account some time ago but didn't bother to say anything and left people hanging. People start talking litigation and he appears within hours... Amazeballs
My sentiments exactly. *mumbles something about ducks, walking, quacking...*

will be able to render with ASIC hardware with blender or other software (can rendering with V-Ray, Cycles or other).
No.
