Why do you people support a company that increases their own network many times over with your own money?
Units are in the field. Only buy second-hand if you must. Don't contribute to this madness.
We wouldn't settle for BFL or Avalon mining with their own equipment. Why do these Chinese ventures get a free pass from that scrutiny?
ASICMINER is and always has been primarily a mining company, selling hardware is secondary. thus, anyone who cared to look knew well in advance that, IF they sold hardware (it was an if at the start) they'd have their own mining farm too.
