How much did you pay per MH/s?

in all honestly I can really calculate that right now because MAT is working out a deal to give people extra hash for late deliveries. I should know for sure in about 2 weeks. But I will let you know as soon as I know.

Hopefully they don't charge you more than the actual manufacturer is charging. ($13/MH)

This is the second time now that MAT has pretended to be developing an ASIC and instead just bought the hardware from another company.

how do you know that they did not help fund the development of the chips in that machine or potentially have part ownership of that company. It's not uncommon for a hardware manufacturer to sell the same machine under another name - the android marketplace if chock full of these examples. You are making the assumption that they are merely OEM's someone else box.

All I know is that Alcheminer has made absolutely no mention of MAT/dreamchip. Sure they could have invested in Alcheminer like anyone else but I don't see how that would be relevant because they claimed to be designing the ASIC/hardware/software themselves. Here's the Alcheminer IPO thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=565415.0

This is looking like an exact repeat of 6 months ago with their sha-256 hardware where they pretended to be designing the ASIC themselves with dreamchip which later was revealed (by the real manufacturer) that they had no part in the design at all.

the chips have MAT's name on them - what name is on the chips in your machine - assuming that thing without fan covers is your machine and it looks like it's missing boards? what's up with that?

Can you please provide a picture of a chip with MAT's logo on it?

As for the alcheminer machine, I don't own one, but what you're looking at is only 96 MH/s so it uses ~1/3 as many boards as your machine and only requires 1/3rd as many fans/PCI-e slots.
