Blah, KnC just redid their web site.  Anyone find a new static URL with the firmware images and stuff on it?  I think I've got the last release stashed somewhere but not sure.   :-(

.03 - superlow but it is an auction

I guess it's pretty clear now we're not getting our 'bonus miners' - is there any way we can collectively force a response from KnC on this promise using the Swedish/EU laws? 

The Neptune in my opinion at least - is a pretty good miner and seems really solid - but I was promised to be made good by KnC for the delay and price drop to keep me from asking for a refund, and I've got nothing from them.  If at least they'd say 'just kidding' we'd stop waiting for the extra boxes and not keep the space/power supplies needed for them free.

To be 'fair' in my opinion at least - we should be given an extended cloud mining contract for 6-10TH to make up for the lost time, but I don't have any illusions about the generosity of KnC.

We've made some mounting brackets to vent the cubes outside directly - they are made to mount to a plywood or foam barrier.  They aren't cheap to punch out - but if there is enough interest they are affordable enough.  If there's enough interest they end up being $100 USD for a set of five if we have enough folks to make an order - I use to vent the cube outside when it's warm since it's cheaper to cool ambient air than the 40C+ air these blast out.  PM or reply if interested.  No rants about how much you hate KnC please - this is for those of us stuck with hardware.

Awesome, long as the price is reasonable I would definitely want to order some as well.  I think a lot of us still have powered hubs and fans from the Block Eruptor days gathering dust anyway.   

Being a total bastard, offering 1.62 BTC at the last moment.  :-P

Are you really listing one for sale?  There's lots of philosophical questions on this board in regard to prices.  :-P

2-3 months projected returns per bitclockers would be reasonable to me.   $7.5k -> $13k US sounds fair.  I'm a business guy new to bitcoins, but I see a bunch of new, better, systems on the horizon making overpaying for something like this seem a really bad idea.  We've all got preorders waiting out there for gear as good or better than this for less, so it's value is going to drop a lot as they catch up with the backlog.

List that sucker under auctions and we'll tell you how much it's worth by the time it's over.

$4100.  So are you really going to sell it now? 

$3950  (I think this means there is interest in 'em  )

$3700 with the usual escrow, etc..

Mostly interested in learning from folks who know what they are doing - I ended up getting pulled into mining by my kid and ended up getting more into it than he is.  It's probably a sad comment on what I've got going on otherwise, but I think this stuff is fun.   

And if I can make a couple of bucks at it too - that doesn't hurt one bit.
