There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Though of that, but they wouldn't get here until it was starting to warm up again.

Lots of GPUs, a quad 7970/280x rig works as a spectacular 1200W space heater.

$1500 invested in 3mh/s would bring in about $200 a month on scrypt, not counting electricity. 

Please DO NOT send me private messages asking for help setting up GPU miners. I will not respond!!!

Well, there are a lot of factors which need to be considered.

*Is your office well-ventilated?
*Is your office made of flammable materials?
*Do you care about soot on your walls, ceiling, and furnishings?

buy as many BFL as you can on Ebay.com and write off the electricity as the energy expense to keep the office warm.

Then you cash out the BTC later  Grin

Oh, Make sure to sign up for the Fire Insurance, in case, one of the BFL starts fire in the office...

Lots of CPU and GPU would do the work, but make sure your office is fireproof...

You are asking at the wrong place, everyone would tell you some mining idea here... anyway, go ahead and buy yourself some 1-2 TH/s ASIC Smiley

Quite sure that only GPU mining can be use as space heater. Dual 7990 GPU would do the job... ASICs produce too little heat. Do you have 1200 watt to spare?
