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.

Yep,thats if Bitcoin dies out COMPLETELY.I'm betting that SR at least will still be here & one or two of the mining companies too possibly.So there should be somebody that'll want the equipment Cool

Even if I get only half my money back,then include what I mined with them,I should break even or close to it.....................that's what I'm thinking anyhow.............
