Mining vs browsing sites for free btc

[bandicootbender]

Hey all,

I have been doing mining and browsing/captchas and find that I make more solving captchas. I have an nvidia gforce 240 that gets 20 Mhash/s which seems slow considering how much I get paid for it.

what makes you more money?

I didn't know you could make BTC by doing captchas??!

Yeah, mining isn't going to get you very far with 20MHash/s.

Shell out 1 BTC and get a USB miner that will go at 300MH+

That is still not a whole lot, but it's 15x faster than you can mine now!

There was just a thread the other day were the conclusion was that a USB miner is not going to make you any money unless you get free electricity, so stick with browsing if that makes you money.

That's fine and dandy, but mining is a pretty pointless hobby if you are mining at 20MH/s and browsing for bitcoins?  eek... I'd rather go shopping with my wife
