Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but if things really do go belly up, the ASIC units are not like video cards and likely going to have basically 0 resale value.  I might be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure the ASIC is going to be built specifically for BTC mining and won't be able to do anything else.  Can someone verify that?

That's correct.

Ah, that's what I thought.  So then, if it just gets to the point that BTC is unprofitable for you, but still good for others, you might still be able to sell to other miners, but if BTC totally tanks, then these units are basically going to be a $1300 boat anchor. Smiley
