I've started using 2PAC and seems working fine and now thinking of buying more NewPAC sticks.
Definitely it's difficult to find a BTC block while heavy ASICs are running over the world.
@sidehack, do you think BM1387 can handle input data more than 80 bytes (of BTC header) with modified cgminer?
I mean my question is for example an alt coin uses sha256d of 84 bytes (same as BTC but with an extra 4 bytes comes before "nonce"). Then can NewPAC be useful?
I cannot figure out whether it is possible that BM1387 is completely fixed on 64 bytes (midstate) + the rest 16 bytes or is it possible (you might know) to set some flag and accept (let's say) midstate + 20 bytes rather than 16 bytes.
Please forgive me if this is rather odd question but try to find out a good use of this NewPAC.
