Got two of them cause I had $100 to blow on Amazon. I'm just mining some Freicoins with em at the moment, wasn't a fan of the extremely low bitcoin numbers I got with them. Hooked em up to an old laptop and tossed them in my freezer, if Freicoin goes up one day, maybe I'll be rich. We'll see hah.

I own 0 but am looking to buy one just to support the community... Anyone know of a cheap place to buy them?

eBay has some good prices on block erupters at the moment. Get them for around 21 dollars each.

bought 3 back when diff was < 36 mil...

made ROI by selling weekly and daily mining contracts on ebay, people payed well over odds just to test the mining water, to see if buying there own rig was viable

Turning electricity into cash is something that some people can't stop drooling about.
