Yes, these are stock pictures of the case we will be using in our production.  We are using std atx boards in our models and off-the-shelve parts,
so that we will be able to supply are larger number of units.   

That is our expansion case.

The relationship btwn AMC & VMC appears convoluted & a waste of money to setup & run 2 different legal entities. Especially when they are run by the same people. Contracts signed by two separate parties but by the same person just looks BAD.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=158806.msg1978339#msg1978339

You can easily run the two separately within the same entity, making it look much safer for investors.

Also, a website with terrible spelling errors doesn't inspire confidence in a scam-laden market, you might want to do something about that. 

And your "trademark" for Fast-Hash apparently isn't registered. (if such a common term is actually able to be trade-marked)

Yeah gotta be honest I'm not buying into what I've seen either.

This also looks like a second attempt of starting a thread as your original wasn't particularly well received;

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=206488.20

Really don't know why/how you feel you need to offer discounts on a product that will sell in large amounts if genuine.

If you're developing asics from scratch there's expensive initial NRE to consider. Until you have a prototype there is no way you should be asking for pre-orders.

Definitely on the scammer side of genuine.

If you mean well, sorry, you're not inspiring me with faith.

Honest opinion.

Make my day! Say thanks if you found me helpful Smiley BTC Address --->

So much info from you...When do you expect to have a prototype working? What about finished devices for customers? Why aren't you giving more info?

That seems very possible. I mean, the CedarTec ones were quoted at 10GH/s per chip (80GH/s, 8 chips). Maybe they overclock them to reach 15GH/s.

These look like serious contenders. Watch out! Smiley

They must have incredible bulk-purchase discounts! OMG!

Does then 25BTC model feature the MAGMA 13 you think? I mean, there weren't that many slots (OK, they were unpopulated.. Smiley) in the 4U server (i.e. not the MAGMA).

If yes, I want TWO. No, make that FOUR!

Do they accept coupons? Groupon anyone?

I am not hitting on this guy. I am simply making careful observations. I have hope for now that he will have the prototype first, and then the pre-orders second.

BFL has no doubt put a massive wall of distrust between the community, himself and his future business success.

At this point, the nicest words in the world wouldn't convince anyone to go into a pre-order. Only a working prototype would.

The prototype itself signifies that the design works, and most (if not all) bugs encountered won't kill the company's future.

It is only rational to produce a proof of concept....that not even a simulation could provide.

Still, the pricing is... suspicious.
