KnCMiner is still in the process of shipping Neptune Bitcoin miners, but now offers cloud hosting. One cloud hosting package gives you 3TH/s for less than $1,000 per month and you do not need to pay for power.

He also....

KnCMiner also emphasized that customers needing to RMA their Super Jupiter would not have to pay return shipping on the existing $10,000 “machine” that was shipped to them; they....
