Butterfly Labs just sent me an update e-mail!

[PuertoLibre]

PuertoLibre - I have an important question for you:

Do you have the red font, green font, large text, bold and underline buttons hotkeyed, if so - how do you do this because I feel like a bitcointalk amateur without this rapid ability when I post.

Will

Simply highlight the text you want to change and tap the buttons at the top. The original highlighted part will assume any particulars in the formatting bar above.

When you want to modify any other text segment simply highlight that instead.

Just in time, a mail from BitSyncom arrived:

Code:

Lots things to update.

1. We are currently investigating on the three or so shipments that have shown up badly damaged to the customers. They do no appear to be simple delivery damage: they are not dents but some corners of some of the units have been snapped off. It takes a great amount of force to snap 3mm aluminum that's been bolted down with 0.9mm screws in a box with foam padding. We are not ruling out the possibility of sabotage.

In future, when receiving an Avalon package, if there is any rattling sound coming from inside, open the package in front of DHL/EMS and inspect the inside, if there is damage immediately return the package to the sender. The receiver must submit the complaint so us, the shipper can receive this information from DHL/EMS and we can investigate.

Do not worry, even if DHL/EMS does not compensate for the damages, once you send the damaged unit back, we will send you a replacement free of charge.



2. Our new SMT equipment has arrived, it is expected to be tweaked and fully functional by the second week of May. Expect an updated gallery of our facility soon.[b] In the mean time we are going to send out ~20 units[/b] through our new shipping channels and test the waters. [b]We expect to go full throttle once the new SMT line comes online.[/b]



3. We also recently released a new firmware that is our most stabled version yet, it also increases the performance by about 2Gh/s and lowers idle power consumption, see the wiki for full details. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Avalon#20130419
 
[b]p.s. few people in the Avalon team is sick, so we are moving rather slow at the moment[/b].

How often did we read that from avalon team now ? They wanted to be "full throttle" how many times now ? 10 ? 20 ? Batch 3 should already be kinda "shipped" ?!

We should make a new sub-forum "troll the asic companys"...

[PuertoLibre]

I did my part in warning people just in case the worst is about to spring up on them. I can sleep pretty well tonight about that little bit.

You are my hero. So noble and stuff. When are you going outside with a cardboard box asking people to buckle up?

That is why I am a Master BFL Shill. (in disguise)

Last I heard they are shipping out Batch 2 and 3 at almost the same time with the new high speed machinery.

What is your complaint again? BFL probably can't even use the (really slow) SMT machines they bought.

I love all my BFL children. You are not my favorite, but certainly not my least favorite.

By the way, please buy more. Then my opinion might change. My love is directly proportional to your investment in BFL.

Aww thats not an insult at all. Kinda sweet actually. Remind me again, which asic do you own and why are you posting in the asic forum?

When you want to modify any other text segment simply highlight that instead.

Finally I can post like a noob.. :-))))

Can I make the text blink??????????

[DPoS]

All that jumbo and no delivery date or daily # of units shipping

and asking you to agree to new specs without giving detail of said specs..

Holy crap i mistook you for the libre-anime guy for a sec. You forgot to trash BFL while doing the ransom type though. Then you'll be all set to be a troll clone.

I have no idea where this ridiculous rumor about a broken wafer got started.  One of the trolls making stuff up again, I'd wager.
