I overlooked the 1.5$ daily upkeep

What shipping method would be used? I live in West Europe I'd like to know how much I can expect it to cost me to ship some of your units

200$ per unit? so basicly for 800$ I could buy 4 of your units, have them run for 4 months, get what you offer in 4 months at a 500$ cheaper rate AND get to keep the units?

Am I the only one who think that would be too good to be true?

thats why we will need bit coin banks if we want to get far, if you had a deposit of bitcoins in the bank and you could ask the bank to charge it back from the recievers bank account in case the money was sent from account to account

directly transfering bit coins with the client is like paying with paper money, if the one who gets it runs away with it, you can't get it back

Pros und Kontras zum mieten :

Pro :

- Falls hardware probleme auftauchen zahlst du nicht/muss es nicht selber zur reparatur schicken
- Falls der wechselkurs sich erhöht hast du mehr als was du zahlst ohne selber pcs zu hause zu stapeln
- Die Strompreise fallen aus der rechnung weg, man könnte mit 350 Mhash/s zwar in 3 monaten 500 euro machen, aber mindestens 120 - 180 davon währen an strom weg
- Sogar falls der bitcoin wert sich nicht schnell genug erhöht, man kann bitcoins sparen und warten bis es sich lohnt

Kontra :

- Falls die difficulty schneller zunimmt als der bitcoin wert ist das geschäfft nicht so gut
- Mit dem geld könnte man einen eigenen miner rig zusammenbauen und nach dem minen noch den pc übrig haben

GPUs don't have 32 or 64 bit, they have 128 and some 256 bit, it's independent from your OS
on CPU mining however, 64 bit CAN be faster than 32 bit depending what exactly is being done, usually 64 bit can hash better because it uses less operations to handle 64 bit numbers (instead of adding 2 32 bit numbers) but who uses CPU for mining anymore?

if you're so scared about losing it,
take a computer and a bootable USB linux drive
put a blank hard disk into the computer or save the files into the bootable USB stick, boot from the USB stick,
plug in ethernet cable, download bitcoin client from official site, unplug ethernet cable
install bitcoin cable write down a sending address to that wallet. shut down that computer
remove the harddisk/usb stick with your wallet on it

Saveguard that hard disk/ usb stick somewhere where no one can touch it, don't ever put the hard drive/ usb stick into a computer that has internet connection unless you plan to send the bitcoins from your wallet to another, use it as you would use a savings account, don't browse the internet, if you connect to the internet, send the bitcoins to another wallet and disconnect again

You should have at least 2 wallets, 1 for savings, one for regular use, transfer excess bitcoins to your savings account so the worst that can happen is that you lose your regular use wallet

the upcoming difficulty increase of 60% takes long to adjust so even if there are less miners it won't be profitable for at least 2 weeks

afaik the CPU miner takes spare CPU cycles but in case of a GPU miner it'll drain all it can,
but the results differ, on my Radeon HD6950 I can play 3D games with the GPU miner running and all that happens is my mhash/s rate drops a lot, the game will still run, however the framerate is somewhat low.

600 khash/s is definetly not worth the power consumption behind it
with my 300 mhash/s I get a bit coin in 3 days, according to this you'll need 1500 days for 1 bitcoin or 15 days for 0.01 bitcoin which is the lowest you can withdraw from a pool
