ASICS and FGPA together as one!

[Anr2889]

I have an Avalon ASICS coming.. no idea how to mine (other then what I have read so far). I know that ASICS and FPGA are different and use different software, however can you combine them? If I bought an FPGA today just to get my feet wet in the mining category would it be worth it? When my Avalon comes would I be able to run both rigs off 1 computer? I know FPGA uses a lower amount of power and lets say it put out 1.5 gh/s. I know once the difficulty goes up, I will want all the gh/s I can get my hands on!

You can run as many as you want off of one computer if you have a USB splitter.
