It's something to do with the state of NY and reduced power since house owner is on SSI.

not that i'm aware of... this origionaly started out as a discussion wither or not a certain unit could mine since it has a 32-process set up but the knowledigle people in the thread pointed out that it wasn't possible based on the chip having one floating point. It's been alot of back and forth either by people who don't know what their talking about, judge me by my past, or try to rile me up so I explode and leave. I was honestly trying to get feedback about using a unit to mine.

I've been tempted to, but if what's true of bfl, preodering won't be worth it. I still might just go build me a FPGA and mine from that. Trying to pester a few folks for their board designs and how where they got parts/board fabications/etc...

Seems like that rustled a few peoples jimmies. If I were you I'd buy a single for $600 then upgrade it to a single SC for $700 and if bfl doesn't deliver just ask for a refund.

I was thinking of doing that also, since the single looks really good right about now.

Also all you need is a usb port to run it..

Trying to pester a few folks for their board designs and how where they got parts/board fabications/etc... Your funny I looked into that myself,for the money you'll need to build em,you'd be better off just buying old FPGA's from folks on here........ It's unlikely anyone is going to LET you copy thier hardware BTW,only reason I mentioned BFL Jalapeno's is they are $150 each,no one else has anything cheaper than $600. You should have one by mid/late jan if you order now.

well I was looking at eldentyrell's fpga and thought that would be a good base if there was a way to increase the hash rate, and except for the spartan 6 and the pcb, I have the other parts lying around somewhere.

The pcb is hardest thing to get dude!! I know,I tryed to copy an FPGA already,won't say which one,but every electronics firm I bounced this idea off of needed $5000 or more up front to even get anyone to look into it.They didn't care about copyrights,just cash up front & we'll see what we can do................ Only way to increase the h/r is if eldentyrell releases or updates his firmware & that h/r increase will be trivial compared to the difficulty skyrocketing when ASIC's start mining. Best & only way to mine,unless you have free power,is to jump on the ASIC wagon. Get one (an ASIC) & mine with it,then roll those coins into another & so on,until you hit your goal,my goal is $500 a week,I'm thinking 250-350 gh,depending on network total hashrate (& price of coins too). Gotta start somewhere,I did in june last year & its been growing for me

dang it - I was just browsing the list of stuff my pick supplier has and he's got a bunch of spartan 6 chips >.< I'd go get one if I had the money to or could get a loan to do so.
EDIT: I made up a loan request on BTCJam for one. Here's hoping it's fulfilled.

Try posting on the lending board and you might get more people to loan you moneys.

So we know you pay for power.
I don't, but the owner of the house lets me see the bill. A bit late, but if you actually want to pull something like this it would be better to tell the owner to give you $5 each month. That way you don't have to spend say $10 of the owner's money to get 80 cents of your own. Win-win!

Try posting on the lending board and you might get more people to loan you moneys. I doubt any lenders would trust someone who thinks it's ok to steal 10$ from his landlord in electricity to make 80 cents of BTC.

That's unlikely. logansryche has a "history" here when it comes to following through on commitments. He'd be better off seeking funding elsewhere. It may even be better if he doesn't use his forum username over on BTCJam. He also posts a whole lot of stuff elsewhere online which might make people think twice about lending to him. landlord's fience's father and he's ok with my activities. Really? He knows all about the ad on Fetish Fishing and is just fine with you making money that way?

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

He's perfectly fine with trying new ways of bringing in an income(bitcoin), and if you search for me on btcjam, I'm more verified there then I am here(not that it makes any difference). My fiance's bondage fetish is not up for discussion, especially in the hardware section. You can keep knicking me and the way I did things but whatever - i'm here to stay.
