My BFL Single arrived today...it is now mining successfully with bfgminer-3.1.0 (I had to upgrade from 3.0.2 to get it to work). It is getting close to 60 Gh/s. It is being powered via two PCIe power connectors from a typical computer power supply and it's being driven by a Raspberry Pi (which is also driving a jalapeño).

Awesome to hear - would you consider sharing your order date too?

Order date was the first day they started taking orders in late June last year.

Beautiful!  Glad to hear they are slowly but surely being shipped out.

Just wanted to ask if the noise created by the miner was audibly irritating.  Heard the Jalapeno was loud and wondering if I had better plan on placing my future single sc in the garage.

I can't really tell because the noise of the computer I have it hooked up to is drowning it out.  It's being driven by an RPi, but I needed the computer for it's power supply...I also can't get an accurate power reading because of the power draw from the computer components also on the same power supply...when I have more time I'll get it on a standalone power supply.

Ok, I had to know...I disconnected all the computer components and plugged it into a kill-a-watt ...it's drawing about 280 watts.

 Thanks for the report. That's a pretty respectable number.

No...I don't think they had power supplies in stock and gave me the option of taking delivery without the PSU (which I did).
