sent a PM to hl5460 asking when they were expecting to have the interview up (wasn't trying to rush them, just wanted to know if it was going to be like the bitell interview/non-interview). Our guy just came back to the office this morning. We will rush him to produce the feedbacks.

I just noticed AM's forum ad for the first time (the one after the first post on a page). Nice.

GHash.IO back up a couple of %... It might've been an outage or just variance after all. Total hash rate is back from the previous spike, though. Could also be that another party had extreme luck over the past few days...

Makes you wonder how much they pay for the actual production. If they use even bigger machines, they really seem to be able to push the price down for their self-mining. The move to price the machines so low seems to be part of the "squeeze the competition" plan.

How so? Back then I remember a lot of talk about making the hashrate public for shareholders to see, speculation on how much TH's was coming online for that week, etc. The climate feels similar, more hashrate is being added and presumably FC will post some good news soon and fireworks commence.

A bit of a shameless plug but I would ask those who have a Reddit account to upvote this post: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2emwsg/asicminer_hardware_sales_round_2_inhand_hardware/Everyone here is welcome to do the same thing and encouraged to post on other social media platforms for a larger AM awareness. More Awareness -> More Interested Parties -> Larger Sales Volume -> Better for Shareholders Now is the time to let every other subforum on Bitcointalk know (preferably in a non-annoying way) that AM has the hardware to ship if they're interested.

That reddit post is useless w/o any link to e.g. the sales thread.

Yeah, the link is pointing back to that very same reddit post. Mistake probably?

Monero's privacy and therefore fungibility are MUCH stronger than Bitcoin's. This makes Monero a better candidate to deserve the term "digital cash".

Does it not link to the hardware sales thread? The second to the last line? Edit: I've edited it so the link is below the "Round 2 Sales" Edit 2: The reason why it's not coming up because it's been "Removal_Rover"-ed, meaning I've posted about AM there multiple times and that isn't allowed (and promptly removed). If AM wants to advertise on Reddit, they'd have to use Reddit's ad system ( http://www.reddit.com/advertising)

Good price though, only efficiency is still a bit of a problem at 1w/Gh when other hardware is coming at 0.7w/gh or less

how efficient is AM's chips compare to competitors? seem a lot of grumbling about the efficiency.
the already produced equipment is sunk cost. efficiency ensure positive cash flow (BTC in USD minus electricity price) - esp with BTC down quite a bit from the 650 level.

Not very efficient at all... 800GH tubes using 930 watts. Bitmain and SP-Tech use well under 1 watt per GH.

Very true, their hardware (both 28nm, I believe?) are more efficient than AM's current offerings; there's no doubt about that. However, the S3 isn't available for shipping until Sept 20th and SP30/31 are in September "Batch 2." AM hardware can be obtained within a week and will have roughly a 2-3 week head start.
