My Killawatt was saying around 900-910 was being used.  I was hoping my 850w psu could handle it but it couldn't.  

 *facepalm*


No reason to facepalm...His Kill-A-Watt would measure the wall usage. The rating is for what the PSU will put out. Since the efficiency isn't 100% his hope wasn't that misplaced. I would go bigger to get some headroom but that psu should have been able to handle.

IMO. I think its easy to say you made a good move. You're very lucky too, I think. BFL has a reputation of fucking with people.

I think it's much safer and better of an investment to buy a crapton of GPU's, because they can later be repurposed and sold for fairly good prices. Maybe even higher prices. (I bought a 7950 at 309 and now it's 350 on amazon. o_o)

They have almost always been good about refunds...I've only heard about delay when call/email volume was high.

Neither. Litecoin may rise if Gox takes it on. MAY.

Well the system is self regulating. It is going to take a coin with obvious benefits to survive now. most will just get pumped and dumped (maybe).

I think the market is going to be full of these alt-coin chains for a while. But i have no idea why anyone starts up a SHA256 coin....anyone points an asisc at those and it screws it all up.
