Are there BFL mini rigs spotted in the wild already? Pictures please

[Easy2Mine]

I read the thread with pictures of FPGA rigs https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=70611.0
and the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7216.0

I haven't seen a BFL mini rig yet.
Are they shipped yet?
Not much time to mine with it untill october 2012 if they are shipped now.

there are a couple at least. I purchased the mini with the sc upgrade because who knows when ill get the rig.. same argument for the mini rigs, but i think what i did was the wisest choice since i am late to the game..

Why there ain't pictures uploaded yet from the BFL minirig?
All the pictures on internet is from Butterfly Labs themself?

Here you go... there are more somewhere.

Fellow Bitcoiners,

The mini rigs have arrived!

Instead of wasting your time telling you how awesome these things are or how easy they were to setup, I'll just post some pics with captions.

Here the rigs are in their full packaging.


Here are the rigs off of the pallet but still in their protective bubble wrap.


A rig unwrapped sitting on the desk to show just how massive they are.


Side view of the rig on the desk.


All of the rigs racked. Had to rework the shelving since they are over 16 inches tall.


Another one in the rack.


Everything is working with BFGminer and will be integrated into cgminer as luke-jr works out the kinks conman gets time to integrate it. If you have any questions, ask away!

Best,
gigavps

P.S. You can see the monitoring of the mini rigs at http://gigamining.com/mgpumon/

Thank you Cablez for showing me this.
Are there anyone else who own a minirig beside Gigavps?

Hi Easy2Mine,

Most of the 50Gh miners on http://bitminter.com are running 2 mini rigs.

Holy hell... Nice setup, Giga.

I really do sit in awe of that amount of hashes churning away. I be so green.....

[Easy2Mine]

Thanks for the info Gigavps.
You are a lucky guy with such a beautiful woman kissing you. 
By the way. What's her name? Oops way off topic.

[Cablez]

That's the wife and mother, I would leave it at that.

Very true.

This is where hard work meets opportunity. Not many people were calling BFL on the phone in October or November 2011 and doing there due diligence. I spoke about this a lot when everyone was trolling BFL before the singles shipped. Even though they made mistakes with the singles as far as the hash rate and wattage, they have under promised and OVER DELIVERED on the mini rigs.

People still bash BFL for making a mistake like they have never made mistakes in their own lives. I don't understand this at all and feel they would only be doing this if they were purchasing BFL equipment themselves and spreading FUD to try and keep some kind of perceived competitive advantage.

This, to me, is an ignorant approach as you are ultimately hurting a legitimate company's reputation for your own (perceived) personal gain.

Howcome you still mine on pools?  Wouldn't it be more efficient to solomine?
