Maybe you should concentrate on wasp rather than proving than no one will ever be happy with any answer anyone comes up with, even one as basic as good or bad.
A little competition never hurt anyone.
I am not in competition with his version.
I am posting this as a guide to people who may not want to spend an inordinate time reading all the reasons why he arrived at a score and then ignore the consumers who have complained about company X or Y. Let me make it brutally clear that this is a biased guide that is CONSUMER CENTRIC not MANUFACTURER CENTRIC unlike his guide.
Again it is always on the consumer to make the choice. I hope what I provide is the starting point for people to make a better informed decision. I don't know anyone with any time spent in these forums that is going to complain much about this "system" because I am willing to actually listen to people if they have concerns about my ratings and change them. Unlike those that think they have a system without bias or a personal skew. Don't take my word for it. Just go read his thread... plenty of justifiable complaints there.

Thanks for getting back to us.
We have been intrested in the idea of Bitcoin for some time now but we havent seen what us as a company could do. We released out Bitcoin Pro Series of Motherboards and got a positive response from the public. We now know that the Mining world has mainly moved away from PC hardware and towards Custom designed miners with ASIC chips. We have never developed any ASIC chip before so our "bitcoin" Division got funds to preduce a Mining Asic and board. We developed our 110nm Chip to keep costs down and wanted to see how the public reacted. We got alot of Negitive feedback due to the 24pin connector and Power usage and so on but we also got lots of good feedback for us as a company so our "bitcoin" Devision is producing REV 2. Your feedback is helping us lots as a company preduce something the average user wants and the Pro user needs.
If you'll sell them in North America through newegg & tigerdirect, or any other hardware house that accepts BTC, they'll be a hit nonetheless Happy days!
We have done a very limited and final Production run on the BTC-24GH and havent been contacted by any Major retailers.
Power hookup = Maybe consider a backplane design for a future revision, instead of spaghetti wires all over the place
Ease of use = If you could make a CGMiner build and use a web based GUI for config like the Antminer or Dragon web GUI it would be better than your proprietary software
Functionality = No need for other functions other than mine. Use more efficient chips. There's absolutely no reason a 24 GH/s miner is using up 130 watts.
What you want as miners from a miner. For example Size, power hookup, Easy to use, lots of fuctionality? You tell us.
Curious as to who manufactured the ASICs on your 24GH board, or rather, where did you guys acquire them from? I think I make out "Cobra" on there and I can't find any information about that chip.
Our Chip was a 110nm self designed and self Produced chip.

Thanks for the great Review.
This was our first take at a Bitcoin mining board. Our chip is simular to the Asicminer BE100 chip and the BitcoinGarden Blade miners chip. This was a experimental project to see how the public would react to a known Computer hardware manufacture get into Bitcoin mining Hardware. We have stuff under the cover at the moment for our mass public release of our REV 2 miner code named Tasha.
