Avalon is a bit...well, old and crusty.  Like ASICMiner's chip.  No longer competitive, even when compared to BFL's chips.

I run some Avalon stuff here (HEX16A2), but even though they were dirt cheap, they're slow.  Almost identical board using BitFury chips does more than double the hashing for no more heat or power use.

Those Avalon clone machines out of China are pretty overpriced too...I think Avalon needs a new chip, one that's much more efficient that the current designs.
