Re: Novello Technologies new Mining System Project, prices as low as $0.3/GH
It's a shame, regardless of whether peeps thought this was all above board or not, most of what I've read has just been bitching.
At least this project included something for the hobby miners, not the usual elitist BS. Most asic units out there are just plain overpriced for what they are, especially when import tax's are involved.
There isn't really anything out there for the BTC hobby miner anymore, a single S1 just wont have enough grunt to make it entertaining soon and current range of 1th units apart from being pricey, are just too damn big n noisy for home use.
Hopefully one of the other manufacturers might take heed, but I'm not holding my breath.
Just my 0.2p

At-home mining began to fade away at the end of last year, there is now no point whatsoever in building small rigs for home use; difficulty dictates what we can and cannot mine - there will always be business ideas which are good-at-heart but completely clueless-in-reality.
The Novello chip specs were great and if this endeavour had been genuine, the company would have had no problem whatsoever in getting funds to T/O, and also could have brought it all to market in a very short space of time.
Sometimes it's just not meant to be, eh Olivia?
