Here is my letter, I have applied for a refund for an order placed in October, will update this thread with progress:
03.04.13
Hi, I have 2 pre-orders from BFL dating to October, I remember it was then clearly stated that if BFL Labs ASICs do not ship by January 31st, then a refund will be given.
Due to current family circumstances and unforseen delays from BFL Labs, I am in an urgent need for a refund.
Please could you process a refund for the 2 orders below with great urgency.

Order 17xx ($787)
Invoice 51xxx ($20 + MiniRig to 12SC Singles conversion $15677)

Total: $16484

Original sources of payment:
PayPal: xxxxxxx@hotmail.com

Barclays Bank: xxxxx
HSBC Bank: xxxxx

Please process this refund with great urgency as I have unforeseen family circumstances.

Thank you.



***** UPDATE 05-April-2013  (40 hours since application) *****

No response received since application

***** UPDATE 05-April-2013  (42 hours since application) *****

BFL Labs has sent me a full refund via PayPal, surprisingly PayPal has not charged a fee which is great. BFL labs has also sent slightly more than what I asked for which is also great.

You're not very good at reading are you ?

£370 + 20%_tax = £444

1. You don't build an FPGA rig like you would built a computer, you buy a ready made board and plug it to your PC through a USB cable.

2. Bitcoin is for using it like a currency/mining, if you want to learn how to program FPGA devices, then you should really be looking somewhere else, the software mining subforum is for "mining" discussions, not for "learning to program" so I doubt that someone there will teach you the basics of FPGA programming for Bitcoin.

3. FPGAs are already barely profitable, people who want to mine for a profit invest into ASICs, people who want to learn to program FPGAs learn something other than Bitcoin.

4. Besides the software, an FPGA device also needs a Bitsream to be programmed, otherwise it is useless.

5. A few days ago you posted that you don't want to invest into ASIC because you think you might not profit from it, now you are saying you want to buy an FPGA so you can learn to program.

6. What is it you actually want to do, mine Bitcoins or learn FPGA programming ?

Re: 160 Mac Minis - one rack

Does the performance of the MAC MINI justify the price, when compares to a proper rack server ?
As far as I know Apple products are known for being overpriced, the whole project looks more like a concept rather than something practical.

Difficulty = amount of hardware connected to the network.

Price drives the amount of hardware on the network.

I now have even more respect for the skillful team at Enterpoint, right from the day the ASIC was announced, I remember Enterpoint team member saying that ASICs "always" end up having to go through a respin (sometimes more than one) to get it right, and that shipment before 2013 was very unlikely.

I just wish Enterpoint was too creating an ASIC.

HOLY CRAP! bASIC is now $14.84/Gh vs BFL's $21.65/Gh! BFL had better ship first or Tom will eat their lunch.

No word if their power consumption is competitive.

Re: BTCFPGA bASIC updated from 54GH/s to 72HG/s

BFL's ASIC can match that if they want. At 40Ghash their ASIC was running at 500Mhz, and they said it can do 1Ghz but not all chips will reach it. So 72GHash is possible.
