Assuming both cost about the same, and the difficulty keeps going up exponentially... seems like a tough one to call. I suppose very long term, more hashrate would be better, but NOW is the time to mine before things get really out of hand.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Neither. They won't pay for themselves if you are just buying them now. |

Doesn't really answer the question of which is better. ;-)

How do they "cost about the same"? But either way: subtract however much they cost you each from the values below. I assumed block change at the two week intervals mining 100% uptime. And took random stabs at difficulty over the next 5 months: weeks 5ghs 60ghs Difficulty(est)
2 182 19m
4 140 25m
6 119 30m
8 84 40m
10 65 55m
12 51 70m
14 40 476 90m
16 36 420 100m
18 28 336 125m
20 24 280 150m

True story on all accounts. I didn't feel like doing actual work for the OP though :-P

According to Jspielberg's google spreadsheet the Single will do much better collecting 20.7 BTC through 4/16/2014 vs. the Jalapeno which will only collect 7.01 BTC. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=236050.0 |

I am covering all bases. I have GPUs, Block Eruptors, and a Jale now. Should have a 30 & 60 on the way eventually. I do lean towards more hashing power as being better ultimately especially factoring in less electricity per hash.
I said they cost the same because that is going rate on Ebay. Jales are selling for about $3K for a 5 and $4K for a 7. If you are lucky, you can get a 30 for the same price.
thanks
