If you are talking about something like NerdMiner or Bitaxe, I think people are just hoping they get lucky enough to find a block eventually. You might have better chances of mining a block on low powered hardware if you were solo mining altcoins, but the returns would be very small. The returns, on average, are probably not any better with Bitcoin, but this is seen as a lottery ticket. These miners don’t necessarily expect to make a profit; it still might be worth it to them to take a chance.
