Will it mine?!?!

Pick up a couple and find out  ;)

Those are some really old units.  If they did work, they would not be fast.

can we post our own "will it mine?"

if so..

If it's anything like an Arduino I have a feeling it will but barely. Those development test boards have lots of broad functionality but no very good specific focused operation. If you do try make sure to post cause I would like to know!

I used to have one of these (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Apple-Macintosh-512K-Fat-Mac-Home-Computer-PC-w-Custom-Carry-Bag-/320876128813?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab5b52a2d), but it broke.

This (http://mapageweb.umontreal.ca/cousined/lego/5-machines/turing/turing.html) should work.

This (http://austron.deviantart.com/art/Mechanical-K-nex-Computer-131179061) one too.

But these (http://www.google.com/imgres?start=119&hl=en&client=firefox-a&sa=X&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&biw=1376&bih=972&addh=36&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnso&tbnid=wNRRCeksmLjhSM:&imgrefurl=http://tv.ign.com/articles/957/957908p1.html&docid=JAi8zSEcyatxcM&imgurl=http://tvmedia.ign.com/tv/image/article/957/957908/ShirleySummer_1235754450.jpg&w=460&h=355&ei=eayKT5GSAqPw0gHtzvnICQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=446&vpy=643&dur=3032&hovh=197&hovw=256&tx=166&ty=103&sig=101364065357192678984&page=4&tbnh=146&tbnw=189&ndsp=41&ved=1t:429,r:9,s:119,i:151) are what I would really like to see mining in my basement.

Then can't we make a Minecraft CPU that mines? Use 100% of cpu, and maybe get 1/100 of the actual hashing power it could be

Make a GPU in Minecraft? Are you mad?

I've decided I'm repurposing the entire world's computing power into a large botnet.

yes it can
but size matters (amount of LUT)
