I'm actually doing it!
-
So I finally get setup using the Feathercoin program. I have a crappy Intel integrated graphics card in my laptop so I’m cpu mining over at https://ftc.d2.cc/poolstats.php. I’m getting a whopping 13kh/s. :P
But I’m doing it! :D I have a fraction of a coin. ;D Lol. Anyways. I’ll get a better graphics card soon and pop it in my workstation.
This is fun.

[/quote]Welcome man… it’s not to hard. I treat it as taking my money back from the electric company.

Haha, thanks. That’s a good way to think about it. I’m not sure my CPU is efficient, but I won’t worry about that after I switch to GPU stuff.

[/quote]Nice! Make sure you get a AMD / ATI gpu and not a NVIDiA :)

I get 13kh/s too hahah I’ve actually stopped as it’s pretty useless with that kh/s, saving money for 7950 ;)

I think I found a cheap, old ATI graphics card that gets about 100 kh/s (according to spec sheets floating around) which will suit my budget for now. I decided to go for that instead of getting a really expensive one until I have the extra money.
I’m not in this to get rich, because I don’t have the initial investment to put in (and also because I make a living doing other things). I’m just here to have some fun mining and support the economy. :)
