I have a few questions.
1) What is GH/s? on the pools list everyone lists that stat and i dont know if a higher one is better or not (usually is) so i picked slush's pool.

2) in the Mining program what is accepted and stale mean (in noob terms) or how many accepted turns to 1 bitcoin?

So there's no problem running 2 AMD cards in this SLI board? I gather the idea is _not_ to run multiple cards in SLI/CF when mining, so hopefully all will be good...

Is this the first time it's decreased in recent history? When I first started mining, I thought the first difficulty decrease would be a sign that BTC was about to collapse completely. We'll see!

I am going to be a homeowner today, closing on a condo this afternoon. So I've been kinda out of the whole bitcoin scene last few weeks dealing with the purchase, although I do keep my main miners running. Going to do some cost-benefit analysis after I find out what my electricity rate is at the condo.

was it just the 'bitminer.exe' file? I think that's it anyhow...

I think it gets false positived because of it's inclusion in botnet/stealth mining packages. I'm pretty sure it's a legit file.
 
yeah, the libertarian site just picked the one quote and says its about bitcoins

which in theory as a general statement it could be

but its a real far stretch
 
bittcoin mining has only ever been profitable for people living in their parents' basements who have free electricity, and can stack 6950s till the air burns.
