Am I expected to be profoundly grateful for only 2 weeks delay instead of 1 year?
No, just saying that KnCMiner has so far been more reliable than BFL, Avalon, and Hashfast - so basically everyone except for in-hand Asicminer devices which come with a premium. Bitfury/Metabank/100th is about en-par with KnCMiner, but underdelivered regarding hashrate including 100th being more than a month late with deploying and Metabank not being able to ship outside of russia. (nonetheless great engineering work from Bitfury's side, props to him!)
Also although 2 weeks may seem like forever in the Bitcoin world, it's still not that bad from a real world perspective.
