Also, as far as I know, BTC isn't considered legal tender anywhere. Ah, this is something new... So, paying in bitcoins is illegal?!  I wish to present you with a question that I have previously asked, but have not received an answer to yet. You're a bit special aren't you?!? |

The image is of poor contrast and partially out of focus. (Possible Super Macro Mode settings)  A simple color filter shows two dark lines of lettering. Not very legible. Also the filter makes the dust and lint all the more apparent. Seems like this board has been in use for a few days in a non-clean environment. P.S. Light source seems to be coming from the top left. Likely the poor lighting is playing a role in the lettering not being apparent along the bottom. Good enuf. I can just make out the lower portion of the L and the O in the middle of AVALON, in the very corner of the image. Mystery solved as far as I'm concerned.  ... well... with that done, I'm bored again... what's next? -- Smoov Nope, still not seeing it. I wasn't accusing anyone of being dodgy, I thought that chip may have another purpose and if there was a reason for not seeing anything. If that is another Avalon chip and it does have something there I need my eyes tested. Or there's nothing on there and you're all imagining things! 0.o |

Only small time, WHINGY, impatient miners have cancelled their orders. Also when the same 3 people keep saying 80% have taken refunds, it doesn't make it happen.
Fixed it for ya! also, I got money on a bet saying DIFFICULTY will be 100,000,000 by 1st Jan 2014. I'm confidant, how about you lot? |

He's 7 tenths of the way there already....
Did you notice that the bottom row is "flipped", genius? (as in upside down) No need to be a cockhead |

Try opening a cyber cafe and running the numbers between "thin client" 5watt machines vs 400 watt fully equipped PC's. You will quickly notice that the difference is marginal over a single day. And barely worth the trade-offs in the span of a month.
(Now in the span of years, those cents and dollars add up.
Buddy, we all don't live in the land of fairy's and flying pigs ya know. Most of us actually pay a ridiculous amount for electricity nowadays I'm Queensland, Australia it's currently $0.23 KW/h. Which is an extra $1.80 per day that we don't have to spend. If I gotta wait a few more weeks for my ASIC, it's an extra $644 I don't have to spend over the course of a years. Marginal my arse. |

 Silly question guys...Where is the logo on the left bottom chip? |

With 66Ghash, 400 Watt, current difficulty, $0.15/kWh, 15$/BTC your revenue per day is $152.
Once Avalon has shipped all units of their first batch difficulty will be approx. 6,000,000. Your revenue per day will still be $78.
Even with 4,000 Watt it would be $65.
You see, power consumption does not make such a big difference as BFL/Josh claims.
If you add on all of BFL's preorders, difficulty will go up over 100,000,000. a 60GH/s device will only make $5. power will cost $8. So when all the paid for ASICs are in the wild, the low power usage devices are gunna look pretty good! |

since USD is declared legal tender and can therefore always be used to repay any debt in the US.
Also, as far as I know, BTC isn't considered legal tender anywhere. So that fucks up the whole argument anyway  |

Yeah, Avalon totally shot BFL in the head with chips that use four times as much power. Good thing we all get it for free, yeah?
I recon once the difficulty is REALLY REALLY high that these Avalon devices are NOT going to be very popular. I dare to say once BFL has shipped and caught up on all orders, that people are only going to buy their equipment. Avalon shipping is a bit of a win for them, but it's not a future proofed device. We may have lost the battle gentleman, but we will win the war! |

What a fantastic argument you have presented me with. I shall ponder on it and provide you with an answer later this week. |

The patch got merged, so it will be included in 0.8 . And a high five to you Sir! *high fives* |

BitSyncom said they shipped, and mentioned two of the recipients. He didn't say only two were shipped.
You're right. I don't think this will change anything until several people are posting pictures and screenshots. I just want my goddamn asics already! I'll be able to retire and sell all my customs rigs, and then install the 7970 in my 'puter so I can PEW PEW PEW it up in BF3 again!  |

Do you work for BFL?
(It would explain alot of things!)
P.S. I do not work for Avalon, nor do I represent them.
Wrong side of the planet dude. I don't work for em |

By the way, serious question and all joking aside, does the Avalon Team need more time to fine tune things? Do you think you got a quality product out (no regrets or anything)?
Hang on, I though you worked for Avalon? Incorrect. Well why the hell has he been such a goose this whole time? He's just a fanboy in an avalon t-shirt?! Congratulations to the Avalon team. In spite of the competitive banter, we've always had respect for the capability of NGzhang & co. kudos for your achievement.
That was humble. Thumbs up Now I hope all this trolling bullcrap will come to an end, and we can get on with mining bitcoins, buying bitcoins, selling bitcoins, and exchanging bitcoins! |
