“Alex Lawn, KnC’s English head of technical communications, stopped by our offices to demonstrate a Jupiter model. Lawn carried around the miner in this box, which helped land him an hour’s audience with JFK customs officials. Lawn removed the casing right away so we could check out the inside. The casing isn’t much to look at anyway, although you can get a sense from the branding that KnC, which started out as a corporate IT shop, is not some fly-by-night operation. And here’s what he wanted us to see: four circuit boards with fans stacked on top. Don’t laugh: It took four-and-a-half months and more than $3.5 million dollars to build.”
