The faster they ship, the worse it just gets anyway. It's clearly a no-win scenario now.
550GH/s = 1BTC a month @ diff 8.600M (= 62PH/s)
and below 1W per GH/s
so long term looks way better than though when placing the order

and when you consider cointerrra's best offer right now it means:
62PH/s => 62*(500*2TH/s@$6.000)= $372.000.000 for hardware
until we reach the point of electricity costs in some areas for running KnC devices from first gen
My magic eightball tells me to put my tinfoil hat on and sit the next few months out. I see my orders as heating machines. I have to heat with electricity either way... Just a little more expensive

Just remember you could have bought twice the amount of BTC if you look back and this plays out.
buying BTC was, as far as I know, in the hole history of BTC always the better choice
and for sure it consumes a fraction of time, no electricity bill, no replacement parts, no noise, no fires, you can hide it easily, you can sell it in no time
so if one is in this game for profit *only*: why the hell does he *mine* coins ??
