Hello, i am relatively new to mining bit-coins but it seems like a worthwhile investment. I really want to purchase somethings to get my operation running but i don't know if i should just spend around $200 for about 2.5gHash/s or if i should spend $700 for 38gHash/sec. The $200 list has a few usb asic miners and a power block and some cooling fans, while the $700 lot has a power supply and a large mining block. i was just wondering what i should do.

Thanks for the help, Nick

It might be wise to buy BTC and hold them.

Here is a blog I posted on making that choice.

If you have already made the choice, then you should consider cost, likelihood of delivery and power cost to run.
