I was surprised it didn't work. I made the plug myself with resistors (I'm an engineer not a noob with this stuff) but no go.
Maybe I'll have another whack at it.

I never could get that setup working on my aging Dell. I've tried a plug on the video port and I've tried BIOS settings. But it still complains if I don't have the monitor plugged into the ATI mining GPU card no matter what. So I render on the ATI card and just live with it.
Well if it's Windows, you need a dummy plug on the ATI card. It's Windows and the dummy plug doesn't work. It's OK I can live with it. |

Works fine. Must be on your end. |

I've read it many times today. They're under threat of a ddos by some blackmailers. Probably some bored script kiddies home from university. |

lol wut? deepbit and btcguild are both up.

So, what happened anyway?

Looks like Eligius is being DDOSed. One of you wankers doing this to prove something?  |

Something is odd there. I point my miner to pool and after about 20hrs get stats: http://eligius.st/~artefact2/7/1Q6igQVdYrxLKy5qJBXAEsSn91S1ZhnoiiMost strange thing is that miner shows: (5s):105.5 (avg):146.2 Mh/s | Q:2795 A:176 R:1 HW:0 E:6% U:0.16/m
TQ: 1 ST: 2 SS: 0 DW: 336 NB: 115 LW: 0 GF: 1 RF: 4
How is this possible that pool telling me that I have only about 10MH/s average??? Your miner seems faulty , look at all the DW compared to Accepted shares , your U is far too low aswell at 100mh you should have a U of 1.397 and yours is 0.16 which means you are submitting shares to the pool at roughly 10-12mh and not 100mh. Lastly, whats up with your efficiency? 6% ? All of this points to something faulty on your side unfortunately. The high discarded work ratio is characteristic of p2pool mining and is normal there. |

There ya go! "Revelation 13:16-17 King James Version (KJV) 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." |

A friend of mine belongs to a Pentecostal church and is super-fundamentalist. I recall him telling me this was in Revelations(?) somewhere though I could never find it myself (I'm not religious).
His explanation was similar to OP's where paper cash would be eliminated and you could only transact business if you were marked with a number. I think he said something about actually being physically marked with the number.
Can someone point the thread to chapter and verse for this? I'm curious.
I find the mechanics of this biblical prophecy hard to accept since there will always be face-to-face business whether you're marked or not. After all, business happens when 2 people have something the other needs. Who needs money at all in situations like that?
Just in case the admins of the Bible deleted what you're looking for, I pretty sure Google has indexed its pages. https://www.google.com/search?sugexp=chrome,mod=14&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=mark+of+the+beast+bibleI've already been down the "why don't you just google it" path as you so unhelpfully suggested. The search results are filled with ranting by fundamentalists about 666, the anti-christ, etc. but nothing about money and bearing a number to conduct business. There's too much religious noise on the web for an atheist to find the simplest things in the bible. :p |

Plus I get to see Mined coins in my wallet instead of Received coins. For some reason they just seem shinier to me.  |

I'm sure you know it all, but maybe someone was confused.
HTH.
The force is strong with this one. |

Quantum physics says that obresvation of experiment can change it resoult. If we will talk much about L it will fly away, like it always do  You must have been a business major in college. Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle does not apply to normal everyday situations, only to quantum processes at the subatomic level. Talking about "luck" or looking at block solution times or commenting about them on message boards has no effect on future outcomes. You're simply engaging in "magical thinking". |

"Luck" is a psychological/emotional term with no objective basis in probability.
The amount of time it takes to solve a block is bounded by a normal distribution. If a block (or series of blocks) is solved in less time than the mean, then people say it's "good luck". If a series of blocks are solved in more time than the mean then they say it's "bad luck".
In either case the block solution times are bounded by a normal distribution centered about a mean time.

Maybe yesterday morning. Only 2 of those orphaned blocks turned out to be legit.
This morning there were actually 4 solved blocks, only 1 of which was orphaned.
|
|
|
|
This morning is a lesson in how pool variability can cut both ways. 3 blocks in a row solved in as many hours. Very lucky. |
|
|
|
I noticed that too. They show orphaned on p2pool.info but are shown as validated in blockchain.info |

To answer OP's question: no
GPUs can at least be sold back into the secondary gamer market.
These FPGA boards are single purpose, so once you're done mining with them they're little better than expensive paper weights.
I suppose you could harvest the actual FPGA off the board and sell that into some kind of grey market for used legacy parts.
Sounds like a pain in the ass to me.
