Yeah you didn't exactly dissuade me, I was considering it partially for an entertaining risk like gambling, but after running some numbers even though I'd be spending what I consider disposable income, it's just too risky of an investment, just because it's disposable doesn't mean I want to dispose it. Not just from the volatility of the price vs the USD but also from the probable ASIC and/or FPGA miners soon to be out. Thanks for the info though, best of luck.

Thanks for the info. I think I missed the boat on this one, it would take me too long to recoup my expenses and with the market being so volatile I'm going to pass for now.

I'm considering trying this out but I had some questions, hoping somebody could help out.

I found two ati 5850's for relatively cheap which I think I could get 600mhash out of what can I expect to reasonably to earn weekly or monthly with that? Do you think it's still worth it? I'm seeing that the difficulty is going up pretty quick as there's more and more mining, but I also see that the price is going up vs the USD which obviously can and will change.
