Avenger, good to see you are still trolling this thread. I know you guaranteed many times that nobody would get a neptune before the end of Q2, but here we are again and KNC is shipping.

Get a life, move on from this thread.

They managed to ship one unit by June 22nd, 8 days from the end of Q2, so I wasn't far wrong. They'll still be shipping well into Q3 by the looks of it, so they will not meet their Q2 obligations.

If they kept to their word and shipped one month apart between batch 1 & batch 2, they'd miss the Q2 deadline by a month.

People's expectations of knc are so low they don't even complain:
1. No newsletter updates for 11 days, during the peak of shipping, to let customers know what's going on. Pathetic.
2. KNC lied about shipping one month between batch 1 & batch 2. Batch 1 customers should be furious, as they are getting nothing extra for their early investment. As Edgar calls it, the customer humiliation batch just keeps getting more humilating. Those guys who bought the $13k rigs must feel pretty cheated right now, seeing as people who paid $3000 less will have their rigs a few days later Grin

3. Very poor product design. Penny pinching at every opportunity, as Elenelen's post above one again reinforces. Chips to measure temperature as far away as possible from the board, so people can see "hey my boards are only 65C, that's not so bad!". I'm still waiting on someone with a thermal imaging camera to get right in there on one of these hot boxes and give us the real numbers.
4. 90 day warranty for Neptunes! That's the biggest joke of all. The same warranty for secondhand/used goods. With all the cheap components knc are using and the excessive heat these components are running at, it'll be a miracle if they are still running in 3-4 months time. And KNC are, as usual, making the RMA process as DIFFICULT AS POSSIBLE. They are telling people to return DOA/faulty stuff, but not sending them UPS labels to cover the return shipping until customers insist on it. And you can be sure when knc are building their own boards for their datorhall No 2 & 3 & 4, they will be using top quality components and doing rigourous testing. For their competition (i.e. customers), not so much.
5. People who don't have their rigs by 30th June - demand the free hashing package knc promised in February. It has nothing to do with the 241 or HWYW - it was a commitment from KNC to compensate customers if there were "any delays". Will this happen? Or will people just roll over and wait for their knc masters to ship them a rig whenever it suits knc?

DickJames, you have only posted in this thread one time in the last 3 months and use that to take a dig at me? That's a bit sad.

One unit? I'm seeing pictures of tons of them, they are all over the place now. You're such a hack, you'll just keep finding new things to bitch about. I haven't posted here because I was waiting to see if KNC shipped on time. Seeing as they are shipping units now, on time, I find it hilarious that you are still here.

Sad is that you post in this thread so much, not that I'm busy and just checked in when I saw they were shipping.
