That'll be messy and it'll probably get in the way. But seems like the only real option, I guess.

That's gonna be a problem since they need to be next to a router to work, right? I'm trying to think how I can have the two machines near a router, but plugged into different circuits...

27/02/2014 - Production Update
 
1. Minion tapeout was completed. The final power consumption for the whole chip is 0.75W/Ghash @ TT corner. When using at SS corner (lower voltage) it should use 20% less (0.6W/Ghash)
2. X1 Hashboard and Control Board have been sent to the factory on Monday.
3. X3 Hashboard design is complete. Will not send to factory until X1 hashboard test is complete.
4. X1 Backplane design is almost ready. We expect to send it to the factory next Monday.
5. Completed the X3 case preliminary design; It was sent for review.
6. We are running thermal simulation to determine the best airflow for X1 and X3.
7. Meetings with Verisilicon and Amkor.
8. Expanded our office and we are actively looking to grow our designer teams.
9. Progress has been made towards USD refunds. We hope to be able to provide the refunds within the next week or so.
 
Pending:
 - Waiting for heatsink factory to provide us with the final samples.
 - Waiting for the PSU factory to provide the samples.
 - Document for BTC withdrawals still not ready due to lack of time.

It's now been 384 hours (16 days).

Already contacted GF too, but haven't heard back.

I forget what the problem was specifically and there's no way to look back either.

It used to be an F. It's not perfect, but it's been improved a great deal.

Lol seriously? He acts as if he's got everyone lined up to make a purchase. Let him make his foolish business decisions.

~2 months

Good luck and hopefully you'll get your card. I'm personally waiting on my Black Arrow order.

I did read the thread. And I agree with you. My point was that you end up receiving your card successfully, report back with good news here, people will jump in, then he disappears. It's plausible, is all I'm sayin'

You know that he could easily decide to send you a card just so everything thinks it's legit. Then when the orders start pouring in, he disappears.

Just sayin'..

Looks like it's been fixed.

Since it hasn't been posted here yet:

Dear Customers,
 
We have just received a call from VeriSilicon and they'll tape out in few hours.
The files have been validated by the 10 servers that have been working for the past 36 hours and they are ready for upload to Global Foundries.
Right now VeriSilicon is going through the review of each department to get the signatures required for tapeout. Once this is complete the files will be sent to Global Foundries.
 
We will update you once the files have been sent (tapeout).
 
Regards!
The Black Arrow Team.

BA confirmed that my order won't be cancelled.

Blackarrow confirmed that my order won't be cancelled.

All I want is my order to be un-cancelled, receive my order by May 1st, and hopefully have some questions answered along the way..
It almost seems like they're eager to refund me since I paid half of my order in bitcoins and the value has come down since then.

Who said anything about a refund? I haven't gotten any refund. I've just been told that my order was cancelled...

Yet he was more than happy to answer DebitMe's questions and didn't make him cough up an order number to "verify he's a customer"
