See my answer in the other thread.
There are a lot of "other threads" about BFL. Can you give us a link? |

I think he's referring to this post: Because we are setting up our new manufacturing facility, I am not giving out the address until the contracts are finalized.
How about a current address? |

There are plenty of businesses* with more valuable information and items to secure who have their addresses posted publicly. Why make a post like this "We'll fly in people to inspect" but balk at providing a current address of operations?
*Operating out of office parks with only basic security measures.

Our new facility was selected (and is being built out) specifically with security in mind.

That's great but still doesn't explain the immense hesitation to give out a current address. With this level of paranoia you really shouldn't be mocking those suspicious of BFL. But I guess if you are going to continue to stonewall I might as well ask: What is the estimated move in date on your new facility? |

I'm hoping next week we will begin the process. I was hoping the end of this week, but it's taking a bit longer than I'd like.

Will it be like willy wonka? Can I come and visit and get turned into a giant blueberry? If I'm good do I get to keep the factory?

Sort of... instead of a blueberry, it's quite possible we will turn you into one of our henchman:  |

Are you talking about the SpinRite guy Steve Gibson? I have heard him talking about Bitcoin on Security Now on the TWiT network. I don't think he checks his e-mail though. I think he would be a good candidate to report on the status of BFL ASIC! http://www.grc.com/stevegibson.htm |

We are discussing the possibility of an open house type event internally in addition to an "official" person verifying things as well. No, I don't have a date on when that might be as of yet.
In favor of that. As a bonus, can we pick up our orders while we're there, save lots of shipping and delay?  |

Our current facility is not geared for pick ups. The new facility will be more suited to it, so it's not out of the realm of possibility.

If you really want a member of this community, someone who is not swayed by swag, a hat would be nice, but I nominate Yochdog for a member of this community to visit your facility. He is an active member in a lot of the forums and is very helpful to people who are in need, and the one time that he did not finish a deal, he came to the board and told the community that the deal is not gonna happen and apologized to the seller for everyone to see. THAT ALONE, tells me what kind of a person he is! He is an honest and trustworthy member of this community and I think he would be a stellar person to tour your facility.

Weren't you in some kind of discussion with BFL to provide an option to host people's ordered BFL equipment? i.e. Directly taking it from BFL to your business for hosting. ||bit |
