Title: Built my first mining rig, just for mining LTC
Post by: maunderingcabal on March 15, 2013, 03:21:23 AM
I got a great deal on a dusty old gateway and threw a card in it. Mining LTC like a champ at low hash. Checkout pictures at my blog!

Is it worth it to use a such old dusty computer to mine(and counting the "external fan")?

And another thing: why your blog is asking me to execute Java?
There is a LTC miner on your site? >_>

It's asking to run an applet.  This looks dodgy...

Couldn't this be considered premeditated theft and as theft a scammer tag should be considered?
