I looked into mining, but I've got a rather weak CPU and mere integrated video on my headless Linux box, so that's out. My MacBook is less than ideal too. So I'm looking into ASIC, specifically, Butterfly Lab's BitForce Jalapeno. Sadly, I pay for my electricity Sad

Currently mining with my 6870 equipped PC, also my girlfriends PC with a 6870 mines whenever it is idle (i.e. she has left it on doing nothing). Also my work PC is mining with its FX580 card and its 8 cores of CPU... although it only generates about 24Mh/s.

no coins, intrigued, hoping to be an explorative miner soon Tongue

@Brian Puccio: 24GHash/s is an incredible amount, isn't it?

I think he was replying to me... although where he got that name from I dunno Huh Anyway it was a typo, I meant 24Mh/s on my work PC... my home PC gets about 295Mh/s with my 6870 and my girlfriends is about 280Mh/s Smiley

I'm mining casually using my existing ATI 7770 and playing around with different mining software to learn more for now.
Planning to get more heavily involving in both mining and btc trading once the ASIC hardware comes out (Jalapeno SC pre-ordered!)  Cheesy

I think that the current difficulty (and its not going to get lower) excludes GPU's (certainly for me).  Its also not worth investing in FPGA with ASICs around the corner, so I am waiting out the mining thing until ASICs hit.  Then Ill reassess!

I'm casually mining on my gaming rig, when it isn't gaming.
