THE GOOD:
I traded our Block Erupter & 1 BTC for a 5970 GPU to use in our scrypt miner. This GPU was successfully configured to mine NovaCoins, which I think will be extremely beneficial for long term savings. NastyFan Akka has also donated a 5870 GPU for our scrypt miner that is expected to arrive in a week or so.
THE BAD:
While testing the new 5970 in our scrypt miner, I overloaded the PSU and burned it out. I've ordered a much more powerful PSU that will be capable of running our 2x7970/5970/5870 scrypt miner. We've also had a bad few days of luck on P2Pool but hopefully that will turn around soon.
