And just as a point of reference, because you keep repeating this fiction. BFL did not raise it's specs because of Avalon is not now nor has it ever been competitive with BFL products.
I believe it is just a coincidence that you have stated a dozen or so times that BFL would remain competitive with
any competitors offerings.
Then coincidentally raised your specs [50%] from 40 to 60 to meet Avalons 60Gh/s. (at that time)
Purely by Coincidence of course?
We raised our specs due to bASIC.
Strange. It almost sounds like a lie coming from you.
bASIC remained at 54Gh/s until just recently. In December they took on the initiative to produce a redesign for 72Gh/s before they imploded due to customer concerns and refunds.
Perhaps what you are actually leading me to believe is that BFL does not intentionally compete with certain ASIC companies?
A strange admittance coming from you.Then I suppose you no longer have a competitor and don't need to worry about Avalon raising it's specs up to 66Gh/s. BFL customer will be glad to know they will not have to worry about you "over-competing" with the now defunct ASIC player.
I wonder if this is good news. Or if you are losing your marbles?
Avalon played exactly zero factor into our decision, and in fact if I recall they responded to BFL by lowering their $1999 price point because they knew no one would pay $2000 for a 66 GH/s device when they could get a 60 GH/s device for $1299.
So Avalon competes with BFL....but BFL does not compete with Avalon.
Quite the strange tale you are admitting to.
(By the way, they raised the price to $1499 for the next batch. I wonder why they would be crazy enough to do that?)
So BFL forced Avalon to price their units at a more reasonable level instead of gouging customers. You're welcome for that.
Indeed.
Up to this day I thought it was BFL who had made their GH/s to dollar ratio more competitive.
Now I see I was mistaken. I thought I had seen you say you were the best. Now I see you are only competing against certain ASICs (not all of them).
This means that Avalon can do it's thing for it is none of your concern, correct?
-------------------
I also recall someone at BFL stating that they had given 20GH/s extra as compensation for delays. Which amounted to 45 days at the time. Now that you are approaching 90 days, I supposed BFL will do the right thing and overclock yet again to compensate their good (and patient) customers with another 20GH/s. Bringing your total to about 80Gh/s.
Strangely enough it seems every time you bump the specs...new troubles arise.
Strange.
