Both the Lancelots and the Bitfury boards are controlled through USB. I am thinking they will continue to use USB. I believe it provides more control for overclocking.

It's their choice not to include credit card payments as an option.
No, it is not their choice. They have tried, they were even taking orders by PayPal with a CC, but PP has changed its policy. I didn't know that, but accepting CC would be possible without PP.. |

im guessing there is a usb port or two on these for hooking up wifi? or hooking up say rpi?
I don't think so, it's not visible in the specs: - Easy to use
- Out of the box functionality
- Low power per Gigahash
- Compact design
- Ethernet connectivity
- Web interface for configuration and graphic reports of mining activity
- Supports Stratum protocol
- Built-in LCD to display statistics and diagnostics
ye, was just hoping they forgot to put it in there. if not then i guess ill just have to buy a bunch off Ethernet to WiFi dongles... All you need is a 15$ cheap WIFI ethernet dongel from Hongkong  or The better way, use a powerline dongle, more stable and more Range. and the rest to a cheap 100mbit switch. easy and cheaper than USB crap.  |

Just a curiosity, but what would happen if you bought one of these machines (the top end one), and took it back to 2009 with a time machine. How many bitcoins would it mine a day?

No, it is not their choice. They have tried, they were even taking orders by PayPal with a CC, but PP has changed its policy. well then I take back lumping them in with the other asic mnfg folks sorry...probably due to BFL..so they likely got lumped in with that backlash by paypal anyway good to know they tired will re-consider ordering with this in mind Searing |

Nope. Ethernet only. The bitfury boards are also not controlled via USB... not sure where you got that from. |

My bad. I thought that I read that somewhere. I only have Lancelots; the BA bitfurys sold out pretty fast. |

@bobsag3: what is that $100k for?
Opening a credit card account to receive payments costs $10 per month + transaction fees which many charge back to the client anyway!
There is more cost in the swipe machine than in the account (costs start from $60 per month), which is also factored in the costs!
I don't get it.
Also, what's with that youtube movie on BFL homepage showing a bunch of employees assembling parts together. I'm not in the business but is this stuff rocket science to build? I don;t see them as Intel inventing microprocessors, it's a field programmable gate array which - supposedly - means you can get a hand held machine and download the algorithm into it!
If KNCminers are out of stock, then why would not they restock? what kind of business is so sad to run out of stock? I understand companies do their best to sell their products and start to worry when they sit on the shelf, like Microsoft with Surface 1 tablet which never sold out. I can't see Apple running out of stock on the iPhone and then sitting not doing anything until God knows what happens.
