Oh wow, it seems like it's been forever since I posted on this.  I no longer have any 5970s, but IIRC the 97 watts was indeed (System Mining - System Idle). That was with a severe undervolt that was kinda/sorta stable.  I think it was 24hr stable, but not 48hr stable. Nonetheless it was a real number though, measured at the wall from a Kill-o-watt meter.

Thanks. That falls under the third sentence of my original post

That's what I was afraid of

Please forgive me, but I haven't kept up with this forum in a while, but I guess all the focus is on ASICs at this point. I've skimmed through a few threads and I understand that at least one is vaporware and a couple more are running behind schedule for release date. Much beyond that though, would require more reading than I'd care to spend on the matter, especially on my phone's tiny screen. With that being said, if I were to buy an ASIC today, which one should I get?

PM'd

Thanks, I'll edit my original post.

$600 USD (BTC equiv) shipped.  This comes with the 550EX Flash + 1D MkII body (charger+battery, and I think I still have the box somewhere).

Bump!

Finally got a win on the 39th try. Wow.

Make that 38.

Weird, I just lost 36 in a row playing the 50% address.

Ok, thanks for the answers

Ok sorry if this is a dumb question, but if I have an address I sent coins to, is there a way to tell how many total coins are in their wallet.dat?

Shh! First law of Thermodynamics: You don't talk about thermodynamics.
