I just spent an hour going through their 15 page thread and I'm not impressed. The AMT_miners guy is a total asshole to a bunch of people. So many unanswered question he just ignores and brand new people claiming have bought hardware. They have been already late on deliveries of the BitFury miners they built and have pushed back their ASIC ones as well.

Why did he refuse sushi and at least 3-4 people from visiting their office they have had for 2 months?

What does everyone else think?

I've spent some time on that thread and others, and I think some of the businessmen out there are assholes, but so what if they sell what we want?

I guess we are beginning to want more gigahashes between now and Neptune, no?

Amt seems to be a USA reseller of virtualminingcorp.com. I think they also repackage more for the home user, and sell vrm's smaller miners only.

ActiveMining: Reaches Its Goal to Fund The NRE to Create the Worlds Fastest Bitcoin Mining Chip

SPRINGFIELD, MO, - July 19, 2013 - Active Mining (AM) and Virtual Mining Corporation (VMC) are announcing today that they have reached their funding goal to provide funds for the NRE required by eASIC. VMC is in the process of creating the "World's Fastest Bitcoin Mining Chip" the Fast-Hash-One 28nm 16 GH/s chip. The Fast-Hash-One machines starts at 256 GH/s with a retail price of $3,999 or $15.62 per GH/s also making it the price leader in the market place. The Fast-Hash-One series of bitcoin mining machines are "The Gold Standard Of Bitcoin Mining Machines"

(old prices)

They had their funding for eAsic in July. Unlike KnC who just now needed a quick million, then another 2.5 to go ahead with Neptune.

The queue - I have cut and pasted this from their website just now, and it is the same as Renan quoted: '8.00 lbs Dimensions 22 x 10 x 22 cm Hashing Power 1,200 GH/s
Power Usage 300w 600w
Batch Ship Date

Orders PLACE AND PAID for by Dec 4th will ship from February 3rd to February 10th'

Or this:

I've sent one of my friends to VMC, he bought 1THs Platinum more than a week ago. Today he called and told me that aprox. shipping would be 2-3 months. So, WTF? I'm too ordered when here in forum shipping was December, not 2-3 months.

That is for ordered which have been place last week. We have a pre-order queue, so if you are at the end of the queue, then the wait is about 2 months.

Seems like 2+ months for these. Which is better? ATM or vrm?

Or Blackarrow? DZMC has the group buy rights to the x3 and has preordered a lot and I mean a lot, and bobsag3 is flying out to their launch when I last heard.
But we could get x-1's at 3.5k per T/hs (minimum order 10x100M/hs) plus extra costs, hashing circa 7th March.

Or there's Bicknellski's hive project, which might be hashing even sooner, I'm almost certain is legit., and I don't understand a word of it.

I vote we need something like one or more of these 3 options right now and we don't leave it all up to George to research.

On AMT: If they are acting like assholes to potential clients and in front of potential clients. I can only imagine how they will treat actual customers and I for one don't want to deal with such unprofessional behavior. If they ship an ASIC and other reputable people confirm that they delivered. I'll consider them, but with so many other questions than just their unprofessional-ism at question I recommend to everyone we don't take the risk.

On VMC: They are already late on their Nov. Batch with no new shipping date. Seriously you are supposed to ship your product and you announce a couple days before the end of Nov that you decided to redesign things and now will be 2-3 months late...

On BlackArrow: Reputable. Last I heard they didn't allow Group buys so I'm surprised about you saying that, can you post the link? I also heard they don't communicate with their distribution channel very well and slightly over priced knowing Neptune's are coming.
