When I ordered in July, I was aware of the negative sentiment towards pre orders and "the BFL experience" with the original BFL Singles. I prepared myself that this would be similar - it was. They are now delivering. Slowly. Just Like Before.  |

BTW People that ordered a mini-rig will make their money back in a few months even if the difficulty goes to 400 million, moron. Get a fucking clue.
No need for insults. After August it will be hard for every ASIC to be profitable. Whether it's a Jalapeno, a Single SC or a Mini Rig. And I doubt that the majority of BFL customers will have their miners by then. |

New single case A bit hard to tell how bit it is without something next to it as a reference. |

New single case That's a fancy box of fans they've got there. In all seriousness, I think it's just a box of fans. There isn't even a power brick plugged into it. |

If there aren't push/pull fan configuration in that new case - .....
I'm just going to hope BFL did the obvious. BFL is good at dashing hopes, though.

It's push-pull all right. |

At least you'll be able to connect them in series.  Note the external cooling fan. |

Yea right, troll away, it's about the same size as a Core 2 duo and it's heatsink/fan, which runs at 65watts all day. So the Jalapeno at 30watts is going to be a lot easier to cool. |

Not when they stick it in a closed case with minimal ventilation. |

Not when they stick it in a closed case with minimal ventilation. You mean the "closed case" with the airflow slots across the bottom and the fan that's as bit as a 65watt core 2 duo fan, maybe bigger? |
