I'm hopeful, but canarys us GB for tubes is around 20-30 pieces @ 1.04 BTC with thin margins. Recall the first 10 ghs blades that were sold were 50 btc each.
Keep in mind that when those were being sold for 50 BTC/blade, there were only "three" options at the time for ASIC hardware: AM, Avalon, & BFL. Of those three, only AM had hardware on hand and BTC was about $115; higher demand/low supply and lower BTC value (in relation to USD). Now there's plenty of options and higher BTC value, of course there BTC margins aren't going to be as good. To compensate, that's why much of the focus was aimed towards maximizing volume lately. We'll find out soon how well they've been selling.

Remember: hang to dry those precious shirts guys.  I'm jealous though I remember deciding not to order that shirt, so I have only myself to blame.

No, that idea was derived from the "original shirt" from Neilol and I which is what KarmaShark had posted. Look at the dates

usually only during maintenance, although they never announce or confirm it.

I'm really worried that the current BTC prices will affect the profitability of the whole mining operation. Sure, we'll mine the same amount of coins and possibly even more if the competition goes down. But, as some people already pointed out, AM will have to pay for electricity and other expenses. And with the price tanking this severely, I think the whole mining operation may become too unprofitable. FC said, he hoped to continue dividends in August. Maybe he was expecting a bubble in order to being able to make that happen.

Weren't a lot of the chips originally sold in Fiat so shouldn't we have Fiat reserves to handle expenses right now? I'm all for taking a large share of the network even at low profitability if it means we price out competition to give us a better footing when the price increases. That said I still want divs.

That said I still want divs.  Exactly this. The low BTC price is the same for everyone - as long as AM can be relatively more profitable then it is good news as it will hamper competitors with higher power costs (I'm looking at you Bitfury)

For centralised industrial mining operations (like Bitfury, megabigpower?) where the block rewards are converted to Fiat as soon as practical, lower bitcoin prices discourages further investment. This is a good thing, in my view. If the centralised industrial mining operation only converts to fiat what is necessary to pay for overheads, and holds the rest because they are long on bitcoin, they don't depress the value of bitcoin and I'm somewhat neutral about them. As for individuals like you and I who are considering exposure to the mining sector, we're probably long-term bullish on bitcoin and would plan to hold most of it. So the decision to mine is essentially a bet that we will reap more in mining over time than if we simply bought and held bitcoins. In this case, I don't think the current bitcoin price is a big factor.
