I have 25 computers that i can use to mine coins, i think most of them are running  ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro's. Do you think its worth it to mine using them, free electricity too. It's in my school, how could i set it up without disturbing the people using the computer's.

Thanks Smiley

Honestly, a single 5870 would probably mine 5-10 times more BTC than all 25 of those computers combined.

Hope you get permanent exclusion.

I bet the taxpayers that are paying your school's electricity are not going to be very happy ...

I do not sell Bitcoins. I sell SHA256(SHA256()).

The way I distribute it around my network is computers is bundle it with some software that runs on all the PC's (that I wrote), and start the process as hidden on a random timer

No OpenCL, no mine.

I know that, as someone has already posted. But I was simply answering the second part of the first question on theoretically how it could be distributed

Is it still using the Gpu or just the Cpu? Thats sounds super cool, i could host the software on a cloud drive thats on the server and make it run on every computer on the network, Similar to how you did i guess.

CPU mine LTC with them. Doesn't pay off alot, but it's better than nothing. If your computers can provide 10 khash/s LTC mining each, thats about  120 LTC a day, or about 0.14 BTC.

If you're IT staff at your school, buy GPU miners and put them wherever your office is for free electricity!
