Not relevant to the case.

 That is dishonest. I have never stated, or implied, EVER, that Butterfly Labs are scammers (your words, not mine). Did I raise questions and concerns that have been well documented ? Yes. Lied, slandered, or made false statements ? I certainly hope not.

 I do not believe Butterfly labs to be "scammers" as I own their past generation product. It has never been about "bringing them down", contrary to whatever preconceived notions you may have.

 We have enough people on these forums spreading FUD and lies. I do not aspire to be one of those people.

 Thanks for the trip down memory lane. (Saw you post it on the BFL forums as well before Josh deleted all my well-reasoned posts and started taunting me again. Amused I've spawned a copypasta)

 To answer your question, no. My posts have no bearing on matters moving forward.

 Have only deleted two posts to the best of my recollection. One image macro I created, and the famous "Eat a back of dicks" post, that I have formally apologized for on at least three separate occasions for anyone keeping score. In retrospect, I should not have deleted my posts on principle.

 Do I apologize for getting heated, upset, and incensed by Josh's behavior and acting out in an atypical fashion ? Yes.

 I should have kept my cool. I didn't. I apologize again. Yet another time.

 No, I don't expect this to change anything.

 Because my council has informed me Butterfly Labs has broken the law.

 Patience. All will be revealed in time.

 You evidently have not been paying attention.

 I have already taken the high road twice, and apologized. Once (or twice?) on here, and once on the BFL forums a couple days ago.

 Josh laughed it off, deleted my posts, and continued with his pattern of taunting.

 He is not taking this seriously and still thinks I'm bluffing

 Finally, I'm not the one with the initial bad attitude if you follow the history of this dispute. I can appreciate that you are firmly entrenched in BFL's camp, but don't ignore facts and convince yourself that blame lies solely with me.

 This is part of the unspoken social contract I mistakenly assumed we had with forum administrators, with the hopes you were good shepherds of this community.

 I see this is not the case.

 Laissez-faire indeed.

 Don't worry BadBear, I'm doing your work for you.

 Stay tuned.

(It's not too late to do the right thing, Josh, and work this out as adults)

 Seemingly still available. Just placed an order for a blade with friedcat this morning.

 Thanks a bunch, gents. Just sent payment to friedcat for purchase of a blade !

 Ok. Sounds easy enough. Emailed friedcat to order a single blade.

 So I just connect the molex adapter to a power supply, strip two of the wires and plug it into the blade, set up Slush's Stratum proxy to point at Bitminter, and I'm ready to go, in theory ?

Ok, tempted to pull the trigger on one of these units. Shipping to USA.

- How is it so cheap ?
- On-board ethernet ? Wireless ? USB ?
- Dimensions of product ?
- Power supply ?
- If I place an order, and there is no significant product update in the next 29 days, I can be refunded my 32BTC ?
- When are working prototypes expected ?
- How long has this been and development, and what stage are they presently at ?

Considering I am a few days away from formally filing a legal complaint against Butterfly Labs, my feelings in this matter should be self-evident.

So lets see here

- Josh lies on the BFL forums to all his customers
- I call him on it in their own forums citing specific examples and even take the high road of formally posting an apology. Have my lawyer call Jordan to discuss his case.
- Josh deletes my well reasoned and cogent comments and continues his taunting

 See a pattern developing ?

 Remember. I'm the bad guy here folks.

Hypocrisy: I post comments. Josh deletes them. I'm the one rewriting (or deleting) inconvenient history.
Irony: The thousands Josh is going to need to spend on their own lawyer when dealing with mine.

 And on a personal note, I really cannot understand how or why he is acting so completely irrationally with respect to this, almost like he finds this funny or as a joke This is not normal behavior. It's so easy for him to do the right thing here, and it's really sad we're now going to have to put Newton's Third Law into motion legally

 So much for trying to resolve this as adults.

*Mumbles something about the four extra quarters worth of clues that you are buying per GHs/Watt*

I will order three units the moment something has been verified as a working product.

Good luck with the project. No more pre-orders for me considering all the scams attempted around here.

... additionally, how no idea how to power the AM blades :| I'm terrified of stripping electrical wiring :|

 Have no fear sending the BTC to the ASICMiner people directly. friedcat is solid.

 I'm awfully tempted to pull the trigger on buying a 10GH blade myself, but part of me wants to hold out for their next-gen product.

 I've not been able to get 3.2.0 working under Windows yet Still using 3.1.1 with the SiLabs driver.

I am interested in purchasing 300 chips.

Am I to understand correctly, that upon your receipt of orders, you will be assembling the chips onto working units, for an additional cost per 16 chip board ? Complete with power supplies, cables, etc ?

I don't keep up with eBay listings. A user approached me about using my images. Said sure why not.
