The first Macintosh computer was delayed by 18 months
I am sure there are many epic fails in the history of mankind, but how does another fail make the BFL fail any better?
It certainly doesn't make it any better - I'd just say that being unable to deliver on expectations doesn't necessarily make BFL a scam. It sure lowers the value of their reputation and makes us all question their competency, but I'm not ready to pull out the scammer label.
