Anyone know anything about these folks:
http://eliteasic.com/ eliteASIC?
They list a couple SHA-256 miners with competitive specs for power/GH and $/GH (2.2TH/s and 4.4 TH/s). It appears they have been around only since March of this year. Google and searches on here haven't been very helpful. Most of Google's hits are from the company.
First post, so Hello everyone
Hello and welcome. Do NOT send your money there. There is no such miner. Even if there was such hardware, the prices are way too high to be competitive. For example, the Spondoolies-Tech SP30 is $3895 for 4.5TH/s. You won't get one until the end of September/October, though. There's a list of hardware manufacturers compiled by dogie. Take a look at it here:

I goto ITITCH.com and find out it is some hokey bitcoin webhosting company. Bad website too. Did a whois on them... They opened up September 2012.... Not too credible and not to mention they make all of their information private which is even worse and less street cred.
Dude, Guido Rudolphi is a Bitcoin banking dude-cum-IT Dick, not a website designer.
Guido Rudolphi, who is an IT specialist among a group of eight people involved in the project, said that they’ve already gotten investors on board and have searched for suitable premises for establishing the bank.
Yep, it's the same guy:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieXZTmEw0qA Took me ~30 seconds to connect the dots. I wonder if he'll hire me.
Also curious as how many Bitcoiners are goin' line up at
Bank of Bitcoin to deposit their bitcoins [and vitals] into an entity whose chief scientist can document everything about you.
Rogue Guy: Is $X USD enough for the info.
GR: Yes. So that we're legal, you purchase from me this entity (not crypto related) I created five years ago. Sign here. Now, I'm goin' outside to water the tomatoes, so please don't mess with this here computer which I'm still logged in, mmmkay?
Rogue Guy: Got it!
...
Rogue Guy: How are the tomatoes?
GR: Fuckin' rabbits!
Rogue Guy: Heard that! Gotta go. Later, bud.
GR: HeHeHe! I bet he really believes that I have tomatoes. Next project to work on.
Looks like I just single-handedly nipped this Bitcoin Bank idea in the bud.
BTW, if this Guido Rudolphi is so damn good at outing people, why hasn't he found Satoshi? Is it because...
Guido and Doge
