Going back and looking at BFL's stupid track record. You can expect them to delay another 6 months easily with no one being surprised really.

BFL: Guys we are doing X right now.
Suckers: Okay sounds good.
BFL: We are not going to ship until at least Y
Suckers: Aww that sucks, but you're the BFL thanks for the "update".

(3 months later)

BFL: We are now doing X.
Suckers: I thought you already did X 3 months ago? Right? ? ? ?
BFL: (SILENCE)
Suckers: Can I get a response?
Random_Complainer: Where the fuck is my order BFL you bitches?
BFL: Hey IDIOT, you are a fucking LIAR! A damn liar! Prove we are a scam douche bag!
Suckers: I'm still waiting for you to answer my question
BFL: (SILENCE)

My question is this: Should BFL have taken pre-orders money before they even had a working prototype? I never paid much attention to this fact, but now it is glaring at me as I think of how many people gave them money last year. People that have been waiting with specific expectations based on the company's communications.

Meanwhile, with no products shipping, I have to ask: why is the network hash rate almost 90TH. Where is all that coming from? I doubt it's attributable to Avalon.

If anyone has any specific quotes from BFL or Inaba on the OP of where they said they'll do X by a certain date then months down the road they claim to be still doing X. Which means they lied.

Please post it here.

People mistakenly assumed they were buying ASIC from BFL in actual fact the small print said FOR BFL
