hey Ruben here. This was a press release handed to me by someone who had too much on their plate. Press releases are simply a company announcing something they are offering or planning to offer. It isn't an in depth review and no research has been done especially when the product can't be reviewed (prerelease) and being made for the first time. The moment someone from the community said the company was a scam I took the article down immediately.

In general, and as a miner, I would never buy a miner based on seeing a press release, advertisement, or review. I've taken the risk with a couple mining companies and have had mixed experiences (super late BFL deliveries + very good KNCminer experiences), but in every case (except with ASICMINER) all miners sent to me were late and a schedule slip in mining always means lost money due to difficulty increases. I have never had the misfortune of ordering product from a company that has gone bankrupt, but this is the risk you face with mining companies selling you product that doesn't exist.

There's still no excuse for not checking the background on this company in advance, so I apologize and will make an effort to look into companies requesting press releases in the future. I'll check the scam list xstr8guy has made if the situation comes up again.
