Hey guys! (and gals) Greetings from Southern US! I am new to the bitcoin world, and technical computer world for that matter, and was looking for advice and/or direction. I have a good bit of money to invest, and bitcoin has really caught my attention! After doing a decent amount of research I have decided I would like to get into it as best I can. My main question would be other than an ASIC SC (butterfly labs for example) what else would I need to run it hardware wise. I have a macbook pro, but I have a feeling that just wont cut it? Or are the SC's self contained?
I found out about this pool from a reference of mine and he had said you guys had helped him out tremendously in starting up. I know I am well behind the curve, but I thirst for knowledge and have no problem doing the research. I look forward to the knowledge and experience gained and to helping out this pool in any way possible! Thank you for all the help I'm sure to receive in the future!
Regards, -Darnol
EDIT: Sorry for the edit, but I thought of another question: I do have the capability to run an asic for ~24h a day if possible, but is it still just not profitable?
