So I have free internet 24/7 and some money to spend, I have followed Bitcoin for years so thought I might get into mining Bitcoin/Litecoin/Peercoin
What are my best options?
My laptop is Lenovo u410, i5, win7
GPU is Intel HD 4000, and NVIDIA GeForce 610m if that is of use.
Thanks.

Sadly integrated intel GPU's are not good for much, and GeForce are much more limited then AMD on mining (not to mention laptop). Free electricity will get you much more then free internet. If you are in a apartment that does not charge overages or something... litecoin might be worth looking into. Do you happen to have a desktop? Even one that isnt a powerhouse could run some of the USB or blade options if you want Bitcoin mining. |

And no, no desktop. |

Then it would be beyond pointless unless you like the possibility of destroying your laptop for a few pennies a day.

And no, no desktop. Look into Primecoin if you know you will be living there for a while with free electricity. I would get a desktop just for it. Before you spend a ton, i would make sure no overages in contract or inspections that they will find mining equipment and want it gone. |

What's so great about Primecoin? It's a CPU coin, and it's awesome becouse the network has already put out some record Prime numbers  |

Buy cex GHs because it's the quickest way to deploy cloud mining. You can have as much GHs as you can afford. Sell some if price is high and earn from mining while holding the GHs. You can check it at my sig.

Free electricity isn't that big of a deal. There are plenty of miners legally paying for cheap electric. They are in a better position than someone with free electric because they could grow their operation to many KiloWatts of usage or more. There is no one with free electric that can do that.
