Sorry, you're assuming I'm their PR?! Now I know you haven't read this thread.
No I don't really think you are PR for KNC, they would have fired you long ago. I meant that this whole bitcointalk thing is the worst pr ever for KNC to rely on. I kind of get the impression you are trying to sabotage KNC, I know you have certainly helped to sway me away from KNC, and bitcointalk in general. ...said the 6 post guy that obv didn't read the whole story. "Neext!"  |

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Where did the info on the units' sizes come from -- do we have a solid idea on what they will be?

Dear all, i read everywhere about a potential kncminer bitfunder IPO but I haven't seen proof. Am I chasing unicorns or do concrete detail exist somewhere and if so, where may I find them?

Looks like on KnC's site, they list Jupiter at 160 x 160 x 200 (I'm assuming cm), and 4kg weight. For those of us who are metrically-challenged  that converts to roughly 5ft x 5ft x 6.5ft, and just under 9 lbs. And that's just one unit...! I'm hoping that they've managed to scale it down a bit, but I've opted at this point to use their hosting plan (whenever they have more info). |

Indeed, but I think we can all agree that in a project, especially one that is a race so to speak, specifications such as dimensions are hardly set in stone, and subject to change...so I don't think that sketch is anything but a crude interpretation. |

So... On another topic you want to know why I am so sold on the Jupiter? Heat. Short of gpu mining there is nothing that even comes close to that sort of power consumption in a single unit.
1 kw of electricity is about 3400 btu. Doesn't matter if that 1000w is going through an ASIC or baseboard heater or whatever.
I hate chainsaws, but have told my parents they would never have to pay for heat, so this year I am going to upgrade their electrical system, then use my Jupiter + 2000 watts of other mining hardware to heat their house.
They will have to open windows when they are too warm, they will love it.
Then when the units get unprofitable, by next winter or whatever, if it isn't free heat they are producing, it will certainly be cheap heat, and ideally I could fit them with a thermostat.
Perhaps this is the wrong place to talk about this.
Owa, I know gpu farms get hot, but I think it will be difficult to heat a house with ASICs!! As Sam said these things need to be operable 24/7 in locations like Dubai. Central heating usage in summer is not what they're famed for in Saudi Arabia!! I mean at best I imagine a mildly warm box, not a replacement electric heater... The OP is correct - it doesn't matter if the 1000w are going through an electric space heater or an ASIC or a standard server - the output of heat in BTU is the same. We don't know exactly how much power it will draw and in fact KnC has told us all to not go out and buy PSUs until they finish the spec. Once we know the draw, we'll know how many BTU the output will be. |

I personally don't think KnC is done surprising us. They have exceeded expectations in regards to Hash power / $ and I believe they will exceed expectations in Hash power / Kwh as well. Sam's comments about not buying a PSU yet just prove it.
Loving KnC so far.

You have to remember you haven't seen the final form Saturn/Jupiter will take. Those accepting delivery, may be a different form factor to those being housed, which will take more of a rack mounted server case form factor...
That would be fantastic. |

hmmm .... contemplating how to heat swimming pool with miners during spring-fall and the house during winter .... |

Seriously, the site says 60x60x120, that better not be centimeters! I wanna get one into a datacenter <_< |

Would be hilariously awesome if they also shipped in August ^_^ Underpromise, overdeliver. |

I love how some of you can be so optimistic, I just hope all this enthusiasm doesn't cloud your judgment when taking financial decisions. But in my book no expectations are met whatsoever until the units are hashing. |
