Before I start to blather, I would like to thank Dave and the MBP team for having it together more than any other Vendor at the time I placed my order in August. They have always been responsive to me and shipped damn near exactly when they said they would.
After dealing with BFL, shipped within a month of stated date would be considered damn near exactly and MBP did allot better than that.
Now for my blather. As the time of this penning If I had to buy BTC right now to buy anything I can buy on Coinbase for $680 per BTC. I am using this because MBP priced in USD.
I have 12 empty slots on my V1 Mboard. I would like to get it filled, so about 12,000 dollars not including any price break. I am too lazy to look up the price break, I sure someone will apply it. 12000/680 = 17.65 BTC roughly, If I had to buy it. That would get me roughly 384-400 GH/s more.
For 16.8 BTC We can buy 4 antminers giving 800GH/s overclocked.
So for me it was a no-brainer to get the power hunger antminers.
I did not get 4 but 3 I almost went for another today but decided against it.
I would have much rather filled my V-1 mboard but......
100% agree. the prices should be in BTC, and should be at least reasonable. even at $749 in bulk for v1.2 boards, they were too expensive the day they were priced, and are twice as poorly priced now
