double my hashing power or refund my money. this is not acceptable. we need to let them know this.

Won't be enough at current difficulty increase rate: http://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/186d0816-5955-4188-9dbc-c7db10f779ec/435c091cf4428dd1473cd9fc92d88eec

They need to TRIPLE it and even then we break even (after 6 months).
Even then it won't be competitive versus AM chips based on efficiency.  IMHO, BA needs to halt production ASAP, offer to refund what they can and offer customers a chance to recoup via investing in a farm using AM chips.  BA chips are not going to be here on time or be adequately efficient.
