You're incorrect. ASICMINER has a fully functional space station ASIC chip.

BTCFPGA also claims to have a functioning chip at this time and Avalon must either have them or be very close if they expect to meet their countdown date.

I have a chip also. Called a gpu. Custom designed by my company. U might have heard of them. Ati. Yeaaa bitches and it is mining right now. |

It's an ASIC for Graphics Processing. One might argue that it's being used for a purpose outside of its Specified Application. |

It's an ASIC for Graphics Processing. One might argue that it's being used for a purpose outside of its Specified Application. A processor of any type (CPU/GPU) is hardly an application specific chip. Processors are meant to handle data of different types and manipulate it in a multitude of ways. I suppose you can make that argument though, because there really is no hard limit to what ICs are "Application Specific." |

It's a term of art. "not being a stack of identical non-differentied transistors" means its an ASIC. Nothing fancier than that. |

Some people seem retarded, GPU if an ASIC but not specific for mining bitcoin and this forum section called Custom hardware. |

Custom hardware that mines at the moment are gpu,s Custom hardware called ASIC doesn,t even excists .. I wonder who the retard is.. |

No, gpu's are COTS products that are running mining software that is built around the devices. And your broken english really does not help you here. |

I can't tell if you realize he's trolling, and you're trolling back, or not... I stopped reading everything posted on these forums sometime around mid December. I figured there wouldn't be any ASICs coming from anyone after BFLs delay again (doesn't seem like they'll be first now), so I just stopped caring. Eventually I'll get my stuff in the mail, and when it comes, it'll be a surprise! That's my new year's resolution. |
