historical mining machine information

[namecoin]

Is there a way to find historical mining machines information? 

eg. on what date do mining machines become available and what is the price?
or instead of the date that it becomes available, what date does the company advertise it to be available. 

This is for an interesting research exercise. 

Appreciate it if anyone can offer some information.  I have not yet find a website that gives these data.

I can't think of one, other than for the StickMiner types and even then there's some fuzzy and unknown data.  Had a hell of a time finding most information on the ASIC chips (see wiki), but with some dedication you can probably find most information on miners - outside of private projects - on this forum.

@TheRealSteve, thank you, your thread on StickMiner does have a lot of history about the historical price.  pretty nice.  is there any equivalent for regular miners?

yeah, i can find wiki with mining machine spec (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison), but unfortunately, not the historical price and availability date.

I can't think of any equivalent in terms of even just a comprehensive list with dates, let alone prices.  There's some mining calculators that list a good bit of hardware with prices from whenever they entered them, e.g. https://coinplorer.com/Hardware/Simulate/ , but typically not dates, or are suspect.  E.g. http://www.vnbitcoin.org/bitcoincalculator.php list "July 15th, 2014" for several devices; highly doubtful those actually became available on the same day
Again, odds are you'll have to piece it together yourself - or have people help out (via this thread) - by scouring the forum.

@TheRealSteve, That table of start delivery date and price is great (http://www.vnbitcoin.org/bitcoincalculator.php).  Exactly what I am looking for.  Thank you so much.

@philipma1957 That is great info on antminers.  A lot of thanks, .

just keep in mind that those dates are not necessarily correct; as I pointed out, not all of those machines will have come out all on the exact same date: "July 15th, 2014".  That's why, if you need some level of accuracy, you'd probably have to dig into these (and Chinese/Russian) forums.
