Hey All,
One of my two miners are up and hashing. Here is what I've observed so far.
1. FANS:
These things are LOUD. I have 8 dragon miners in the same space, and the 1 AMT miner is louder, but let me explain this. The fans on this thing are ridiculous. There are 3 large fans mounted on the top, and you can feel the air from across the room. These are VERY effective at moving the heat out of my miner. Certainly does a better job of cooling compared to the dragons. Its as if they stuck a box fan in front of the miner, and directed it through the miner.
2. Speed:
This miner hashes as it should. On BTCGuild, I'm seeing about 1.27th. I haven't had a chance to test the miner for a long period of time because I got it today, but I'll update later. Seems to be running fine.
I took the miners side door off to see what's inside, and it seems like it is the same setup as the dragon miners, but with 5 modules instead of 4. the controller board that hooks everything together looks nicer than the dragons, and I like how the raspberry pi is mounted on the same side as the psu connector.

Seems like all of the modules were pretty cramped so they needed to bend the psu connector a bit. Didn't affect anything, but a little bit troubling:

AMT- feel free to use the images for whatever you find necessary.
Let me know if you have any questions, and I am eagerly awaiting my second miner.
And I know that there are going to be "why did you accept a package for a $1,200 miner that cost $6,000," My answer to that is receiving something now is better than nothing. Please don't argue with me as I am simply here to show off the miners and offer the help that I can.
Thanks,

It performing as it should is a good thing
Good to know. Seems like some people got better experiences than others. No rust on yours for instance and you got a PSU 
Just to clarify there was no rust on the machine itself and from what I can tell the build quality appears to be solid. There were four extra pieces of metal in my container that were rusted and had potentially dangerous edges. Likely this was to keep the miner's box weighted and it seems to work as the box suffered only minimal damage to one corner. No harm appears to be done to the miner it self as the foam pieces kept it snug as a bug.
I just don't want anyone to open their box and get an accidental surprise cut.
