Oh get a tape measure out and just finish the pissing content already...
One of you will be saying "I told you so" in the near future. The other will slink off having been ridiculed by the entire Bitcoin community. Until that point, chill the hell out...
Go back to BFL lala land forums and shut the f*uck up.

Micon, you do realize that hundreds of people have taken high resolution photos with real cameras of our equipment this week.
What's the point of taking pictures of empty boxes? You said yourself in an interview that you posted on your website : David Perry: "So this is just a case ... you don't actually have ASICs ready? Josh: "Um... right ... but we are eagerly awaiting them as everybody else I'm sure ..."

Too bad the whole thread turned into a "BFL-Scam?" discussion. This is a valid discussion in itself, ...
There was a poll/discussion some time ago - but the mods thought it's off-topic: [POLL] Should BFL get a Scammer tag?

I am pretty sure he just wrote something laced with stereotypes just above me. Glad I cannot see it anymore.
Come on, dude. You need Inaba. And he needs you. You are like Batman and Joker. Or more like Jokeman and Bonker

The lovely anti-semite "joke" he tried to tell me at the end of our encounter was also classy. I don't know if he thought I was Jewish or what?
No, he thought you were dumb. Which you are. He in fact is Jewish. Hence he can't make anti-semite jokes. Only funny jokes.

The fact you refuse to bet, shows that you have low confidence in your claim that BFL are scammers BFL are not scammers. They are just disorganized airheads that try to run a business. And got/get scammed by some Asian benefactors*). ------------------ *)(c) bASIC/Tom

... stomping around and yelling "IS IT JUST A FUCKING BOX WITH A FANS?!" over and over.
Well ... it is just a f*cking box with fans. Not much different from this f*cking box with no fans @Inaba: Have you ever contemplated why this shit happens to you/BFL? Hint: Treat your customers like shit - and they will treat you like shit.

LMAO!!!!!!BFL presented prototype at CES ... based on Nexus 7 phone ... It is awesome ... It works, I will be rich ...... Q: What did you invest? A: I sold my kidney to order a Jalapeno ...LOL. lucif, thanks so much man! My whole family is ROFL ... [EDIT] I wonder if SLoK finds this funny too. He is Dutch and understands what they are saying (plus he loves BFL).

I'm beginning to think that you have some sort of ass-obsession.
You begin to think? That's one step forward ...

So they show up at CES without a single working device. Not even a Jalapeno -> not even one working ASIC chip.
Um, you never produce "one" ASIC chip. If they had one, they would have thousands, and they would have already shipped. I never said ASICs are produced by the piece. You said "not even one". This implies that there are situations where you would expect them to have only one working chip. You should have said "not even a prototype batch" if that is what you meant. No, I said " So they show up at CES without a single working device. ...". How does this imply their fab has produced only one working chip?!?! There might be tons of ASICS - but at CES they showed none. That's all I said. Some people here are to dumb to read. Or simply retarded. You can imply this up your ass.

I don't f*cking understand why all of a sudden everyone is talking about a Nexus7 tablet. And black boxes. And fans. The whole interview is hot air: "Nexus7 ... bfgminer ... Android ... bla bla bla ... Nexus7 ... bfgminer ... bla bla bla ...". Can someone in Vegas please visit BFLs booth and kick them in the nuts? One kick per shipment delay.

# -9 : We can't ship Minirigs because Nexus7 tablets are out of stock.

They should send these to all those with preorders. Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day Can I have one of those instead?

Um, you never produce "one" ASIC chip. If they had one, they would have thousands, and they would have already shipped. You never do 50 wafers with a design where you actually don't know if it's working or not. If the chips are borked you'd lose some 100K USD! hihi, you mean BFL possibly not produce a test wafer of it's ASIC design?? Where did I say that? I simply said you don't do a full batch run with an unverified design. I strongly assume BFL has done a test run. Or two. Or three. The fact that they still can't show a working product, or prototype, is kind of a worry ...

Um, you never produce "one" ASIC chip. If they had one, they would have thousands, and they would have already shipped. I never said ASICs are produced by the piece. But you can have a test wafer (with a couple hundred chips, depending on die size) that's processed with another batch (so 49 wafers of product A and 1 wafer with my test chips). You never do 50 wafers with a design where you actually don't know if it's working or not. If the chips are borked you'd lose some 100K USD! I feel like I'm repeating myself...
Possibly. That's why you are a troll.

4 minutes of bla bla bla ... the interesting part starts at 4:30 : David Perry: "So this is just a case ... you don't actually have ASICs ready? Josh: "Um... right ... but we are eagerly awaiting them as everybody else I'm sure ..." (By the way: Comments are disabled for this video. I wonder why ) So they show up at CES without a single working device. Not even a Jalapeno -> not even one working ASIC chip. This means they never had a working prototype. Never. Not even today. Their power estimates, hashrate, etc. are in no way verified. They don't even know for sure if their chips are working at all. It's all based on simulation. Even Tom/bASIC is one step further: Tom already recognized that he was out of his depth. BFL still has to come to this realization ...
