Sorry if this has already been covered.

It just seems highly optimistic to produce a 45nm die chips by the end of this month. I have no expertise in this area i am just reflecting on the difficulties that BFL had when trying to produce the 68nm die chips. Would be grateful if someone with more technical knowledge could discuss this.

Also a few other points that i would like to ask:

1, Has there been confirmation for all of the Avalon Batch 2 machines? Has there been any news of them shipping this specific order (I know they're ramping up their production line when they receive the hardware to do so). Once these machines arrive where will they be situated, what physical considerations in terms of security have been considered? Where will the rest of AMC's machines be situated?

2, Has design of the 45nm die chips already started or does its start depend on the IPO being a success?

3, What happens if the IPO is not completely fulfilled?

I appreciate the time taken in replying,
