The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Only other coins that use the same algorithm, such as NameCoin.  You can't use it for e.g. LiteCoin, DogeCoin, VertCoin, etc. as they use different algorithms.

You'd have to decide on what coins you'd like to mine, first - depending on that choice, you might have to look into a different ASIC-based miner, or GPU mining, or (though rate) CPU mining.

But that would be something for the Altcoin miing section -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0
