Sorry for the confusion.

The linux mining guides is correct. However the windows and OSX source code have not been updated.

I will post a guide on my blog to install ubuntu under vmware on linux.

Linux       - http://ethereum-miner.tumblr.com/post/75205573886/linux-ubuntu-install-guide
Windows  - Instructions coming to install ubuntu on windows through vmware so you can get started on windows. Previous Go guide is outdated.
OSX        - Coming soon.

Time for a quick PSA:
- All communications are done via blog.ethereum.org
Right now blog link gives "Error establishing a database connection"

If they restructure the IPO to be more fair it will definitely do well for the project. I'm willing to invest but don't let the shareholders take 100% of the risk!

Time for a quick PSA:

- Any BTC address or fundraiser or IPO is at the moment, a SCAM
- Any client not built from code.ethereum.org is a SCAM

- All communications are done via blog.ethereum.org

- The testnet went live this morning UK time, it contains an alpha client, no meaningful mining function
- At the moment only the C++ LINUX client has been released

So what can we do if we cannot mine and can't invest?

so a few can mine now, investors cannot buy still? second time or third to delay the fund-raiser and this time it is without another new deadline? what a joke, can't wait to participate in the fund-raiser of a fork with more dedicated serious devs.

As I understood mining isn't real, as it is just on the testnet. The testnet was released to give some more insights to people willing to invest. I guess that the fundraiser has been delayed due to the large response and the unsatisfying conditions of the IPO. My prediction would be that they are improving the IPO terms and will release a new date for the fundraiser as soon as they fixed the terms.

From a personal perspective I think it was a smart move to listen to the community, which clearly wasn't happy with the conditions. I would also prefer to push the fundraiser back, instead of launching an IPO to an unhappy crowd.

It's amazing how this thread has evolved.
I guess with the fundraiser delay, maybe now they will consider something with better ROI for the investors.
If they come back with the same offer, I would wait and buy later from an early investor who's Ether have declined in value.
I see the project has merits, the only problems I see are the early investors getting zilch and that Ursium guy pretending to be a concerned outsider, while obviously he is involved somehow. You guys need to be clear about people's involvement in this project. I might overlook you having hired a couple of crooks from Goldman Sucks, these rats will find money. But to hire a mouthpiece "Ursium" who pretends to be a concerned outsider makes me puke.. I think Charles is a better representative for you guys on these forums

The founders sound like greedy douchbags, but they are technically brilliant. So I guess im in, oh well lets all become millionaires.

the greedy douchebags are the ones who come on this thread and relentlessly bash it in order that they might buy a greater stake in Ethereum for less money.

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bearraid.asp

this tactic known as Bear Raiding is not only immoral it is also illegal.
and if people think SEC rules do not apply to bitcoin investments then the case of Trendon shavers would clearly demonstrate how wrong that line of thinking is.

there really is no reason for ANYONE not interested in this project to be typing on this thread. therefore it is safe to say that those who type/spam the most are the ones who stand to gain the most from their actions.

seriously the amount of people who come onto bitcointalk and believe they can say and do anything they want simply because its bitcoin (or any other virtual currency) simply astounds me.
