Could I run it as a VM on my Sinclair ZX80?

We'll upgrade next month batch to Intel NUC NUC5i5RYH model. The CPU in the NUC NUC5i5RYH is 5th generation Intel® Core™ i5-5250U processor (a Broadwell micro-architecture, 14 nm)

We'll pre-load the machine with Popcorn time for Linux (64 bit), so the SAT10 may be used as a very capable HTPC while triple functioning as full node and capable miner.

We'll sell an optional SSD upgrade and an optional AirMouse

We're testing various Steam games for Linux to see if it will make sense to sell an optional Gamepad as well.

This is great - I'd like to preorder 3, as long as you are sure to include AirMouses with them. I assume this can hash every PoW algorithm, including those not yet released?

No, the SAT Solver we developed is for SHA256 only.

Are the new units fire resistant? I'd still want them hashing under those circumstances. Maybe add an automated underclock option.

Don't worry. The CPU load on the NUC is well below 50%. The limiting factor is the amount of available memory.
You can stream and view 1080p movie with Popcorn time in parallel.

The only question is: Will it blend?

[spiccioli]

I didnt even look into it, saw new Spon tech and jumped.
Damn you and your early april fools!

Better not have just signed up for midget porn in my email!

Sh*t!! I have been away for two days, I was catching up... so I simply filled it thinking it was already too late

The only question is: Will it blend?

better yet: does it play crysis?

maybe if we send few emails to intel, they will sell us some memory riser cards!
and we can upgrade to 1tb of memory and 6.4Ph/s hash rate

After two years in the making, I'm happy to announce that we completed the development of a very efficient SAT solver for SHA256.
On Intel D54250WYK NUC with 16 GB of RAM, we're getting about 100 TH/s.

With great power comes great responsibility.

In order to protect the Bitcoin ecosystem, we'll sell each month only 1,000 SAT10 units.
The initial cost will be $5,000 per unit. We'll sell up to two units per customer each month.

Each SAT10 unit will contain the following:

- Intel D54250WYK NUC
- 16 GB Kingston SODIMM
- 1TB WD Magnetic 2.5" HDD (we'll provide SSD upgrade option)
- Intel Dual Band Wireless-N 7260 card
- Spondoolies's Propriety mini PCI Express card
- Pre-configured Ubuntu 14.04 with cgminer, running as full node

The mini PCI Express card contains proprietary essentials close elements of the SAT Solver.

We did a large scale testing of our initial batch last week but beside testing and development, we don't intend to run our own farm.

If you're interested to participate in a draw to buy the first batch (shipping immediately from stock), please fill the following form:

Thanks,

Last week testing can be seen here:



We used a sliding window of 300 SAT10 every few hours.

We'll upgrade next month batch to Intel NUC NUC5i5RYH model. The CPU in the NUC NUC5i5RYH is 5th generation Intel® Core™ i5-5250U processor (a Broadwell micro-architecture, 14 nm)

And of course, a fifth usage (beside Miner, Full node, HTPC and Games Console) will be for video conference, with an optional webcam

The draw registration for this month batch will be closed in few hours: http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/pages/sat10-draw

Unfortunately, Intel's NUC doesn't support CEC. We're testing Pulse Eight's add-on intenal card: https://www.pulse-eight.com/p/117/internal-hdmi-cec-adapter
If the testing will be successful, we'll sell the adapter as an option.
We want to allow the best possible HTPC experience while mining and protecting the Blockchain.

Guy

Another shameless bump.

Would be nice if this much energy/communication went into updating us on products and R&D. LOL LOL

Heh, I filled one out just to see if and what they do end up giving away. I don't know if I want the responsibility of a 100TH/s NUC, but something like a 10TH/s coffee mug warmer would be cool. For some reason no one's ever produced one of those.

[SgtMoth]

Good way to get some attention even if it's a joke.  Oh well, I won't tell the wife either way😉

Ahahaha Im feeling stupid, I actually take time to search what was a SAT solver 

Nice one Spondoolie!

Is this one already on biggest April Fools' Day pranks rank on mashable.com or what?

[aclass]

can you change my request from 1 to 2? I messed it up a bit.

Thanks
