this is really serious, I've thought that BFL was doing this, now AVALON just went to my red-zone as well, it seems that ASICMINER is the only honet company (but with extreme prices)
Uh, ASICMiner also mines with their blades. They openly have a farm and continue to expand it.
Apparently, all three companies do this. Which is surprising coming from Avalon.
ASICMINER aren't mining with other people's hardware after they've sold it, which is what make's Avalon's actions unethical if this is true.
