Since I am newb to linux, nothing makes sense :)

Went to HP Cloud could not find any info about mining Bitcoin/Altcoin there.

They do want money for monthly services.

Your video is great, It is gibberish to me at this point, I need to use linux a bit.
Trouble is I have nothing that needs it to run.

My USB ASICS and GPU's use Bitminter GUI and is all windows 7 based. with IE9.
Firefox stumbles on some of the logins and security features, being a bit over aggressive.

So Thanks for the heads up, I will attempt to load a linux dist to a spare unused machine.
To see if I can make heads or tails from it.

Most friendly for newbs reccomendations ?
