is this good or bad, and how many months till i get 1bitcoin?

[joae1975]

It's freekin' awesome!!!  At current difficulty, will take you about 6 months to 1 BTC.

If it's good or bad depends on what you compare it with.
127MH/s isn't a lot,
at current difficulty it makes you around 0.004BTC per day,
or 1BTC in ~250days (the difficulty will most definetly rise a couple of times within those 250days, so in the end you'll probably need 2, or 3years to get your 1BTC, or maybe never get it)

It'll take you about 9 months to get ONE.

Are you planning on mining 24/7 or does your system have other jobs?

Definitely never get to 1BTC Go play with http://www.coinish.com/calc/ (use expert mode). Plug in your hashrate and 1BTC as the purchase price, ROI never.

Taking rising difficulty into account, you'll never get 1BTC, ever.

If difficulty only rises 10% per 2016Blocks (and that's pretty optimistic, todays adjustment was +28%),
you'll only ever get ~0.56BTC.

So what mining hardware have you got plugged into it? A naked pi is only going to get around 127 kHash/sec not MHash/sec.

[J35st3r]

Yup, just gave it a try ...
