yup, 2BTC each was way too much, but now the thought of 670MH/s for just ~$220 is too much to pass up.

So... I created an account to participate in a group buy.

So.... I have to make a post with several sentences in newbie jail.

So..... I can get out of jail and participate in the group buy.


BTW - forums suck.  Not these forums, any forums.  Terrible UI.  Terrible way to interact with people.  If you want real time, do IRC.  If you want archives, do email list + archives.  Forums are the worst of all worlds.  Hard to search, hard to follow threads, hard to sign/verify content, and everyone has their own email setup they like, but nobody wants to use a browser to read email (unless you actually do, then just use gmail or whatever).  Seriously =( forum hate!

depending on the diff increase, still looks like 120-200 days to break even... great for the novelty though! =D

Isn't the minimum order size 50 miners?

from ASICMiner, yes, but people organize group buys, like this one:

You can see from his past group buys, he seems trustworthy:

1 BTC. Still massively overpriced.

It's 1.05 now.  I was all set to buy my 3, but now I am .1BTC short, so I need to mine for another day Sad
