Blue Fury? What's the difference between Blue Fury and Red Fury? Edit: Never mind, I see they have a blue LED now. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) Blue sucks. I'd prefer red, I've enough blue LEDs to cover up, so they don't light up the whole upstairs of the house...

I remember in the 90's when blue LEDs first started to emerge, and they cost like 40x that of the red LEDs. Hard to imagine now, but back then they were the coolest thing. Now they are everywhere, and I want red back.

Yes it did. I was confused with what the EE told me. Didn't realise it was just a blue pcb change.

Beastlymac will you be imposing rules/restrictions to your authorized resellers (much like ASICMiner did with their products) to regulate and control the distribution so it doesn't get chaotic?
