To answer the question about the ASIC. Yes, you can use an SHA ASIC for any SHA coin. That being said, there are new dual miners out that can hash both SHA and SCRYPT (like litecoin).

These standalone miners that I have read about, does i mean you just don't need any other hardware? Or do you plug them into any type of computer?

Sorry for the ignorance, but searching the internet is not really yielding clear yes and no answers.

Also, I can use an asic with any SHA coin, right?

With the difficulty going up for BTC (6000+) it's probably a fool's investment, but it might be a laugh.

Cheers!
