Considering this is focused on a huge change to the hardware, the fact that it even can start booting shows they have significant progress in it. I have a feeling you have no idea how much work it takes to get to that point. Hell, the original iPhone barely managed to boot and had to follow a strict order of actions when doing it at the original Apple unveiling or else it would crash. This is still a phone very much in development, you need to respect that.

The reason why they sell it is to offload risk. Some businesses don't want Bitcoins, but they don't mind selling tools to mine them, even if there is potentially more money to be made off just mining them. Risk management and speculation play a strong role either, where the buyer is willing to take on all the risk of mining.

I use credit cards for all my purchases and get around $300/year back in rewards. On top of that, all my purchases have additional protections provided by the credit card company. Further, not a single person is liable for any fraudulent charges made on a credit card. I'm having a hard time seeing your point.

The Titan line is marketed by NVidia for gaming. Compound this with the fact that the Titan line does not come with workstation drivers and that cheaper alternatives exist for workstation GPUs (dedicated to GPGPU mind you), and it makes no sense to try to argue that the Titan line was not meant for gaming.
