come on guys, be fair to the hard working fellows at BSL...

Mr. Josh only said All Product Line, but didn't say how many units per.

He'd totally come clean if BSL manages to send 5 Jalapeno, 5 Little Single, 5 Single, and would fufil their prophecy.

Have faith, and in Josh trust

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I sure hope BFL allowed time in that tight schedule for FCC and URL inspections.

FYI: Every dorm room in America requires ALL electrical appliances to be URL approved. Reason? Fires. Fires caused by electrical equipment built by redneck cowboys.

To give you just a tiny little bit of background (since you haven't read these boards). They were going receive thousands of chips in December. It was all systems go and they were *almost* ready to ship back then. Same thing in February. Josh was going to see the wafers and then take them to the packaging. That time for certain there were going to be thousands of chips and they would ship soon!

Most people who have been here a while just ignore BFL shipping "dates". They will ship if they ship, at some rate to be determined in the future.

Or crickets... Hard to tell the difference with BFL these days.

Josh promised to donate a quarter to the victims' families...next week. 

It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything.

There's also the matter of Josh's other 1,000 BTC wager regarding power targets, which AFAIK he has not paid:

How many chips are on a wafer?


How many orders do you think they can ship with the 68 wafers that are coming?

 This is the part where we ask you about "proof". It speaks entirely to the character (or lack thereof) of Butterfly Labs.

Most sane people would go weary of even opening a BFL related thread any more... but I don't know any sane people.

The content of the 'update' does not much matter to me (been waiting since September) but what I do get a kick out of is the hit parade of jadedness that flocks to these types of posts. From people wondering if now would be a good time to order, to people who have been screwed properly by BFL, to just good ol fashioned nay-saying.

What a good day to be a nerd.

This post sums up why all this bullshit is a scam
Read It. Hate It. Change the facts that it represents.

AFAIK:
Josh said the power bet was settled, but we never had confirmation (like a bitcoin transaction, or the recipient confirming).
BFL said they had not yet determined if/when they were going to donate to charity.

If you have evidence to the contrary, please link to it.
