If OP is just wanting to learn he could use a Compac usb stick miner. It's still the most recent stick miner.  For just learning it is great as it makes the person learn some of the command's.   So I consider it educational. 

Now if OP is looking for best bang for the buck then full machines are going to be what he want's.  But we really need to know electricity price as you pointed out some are old and could be like losing money every day it runs.  Which is not a ton of fun.
I've read that it's now almost impossible to earn something with Compac usb stick miner, is that true ?

Old miner are not efficient.

When you said "Old miner are not efficient", you mean that miner are quickly obsolete ? What is quickly ? 1 month ?

Look for a Bitmain S1 or S3,bout as cheap & easy as it gets  Wink
Thanx, it's Hashrate: ~190 GH/s for 159 euros,
is it a website where we can find the ratio Hashrate/euro or Hashrate/$ with latest prices ?

Ebay or craiglist kind of publication/online sales/swap thing  Wink

This is US,but gives you an idea:

Bitmain S1
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR1.TRC0.A0.H0.XBitmain+S1.TRS0&_nkw=Bitmain+S1&_sacat=0

Bitmain S3
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=Bitmain+S1&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR3.TRC2.A0.H0.TRS0&_nkw=Bitmain+S3&_sacat=0

You will need a PC powersupply to run those,should say what size(wattage) in the listing.

Get one of these to fool your PSU into thinking a motherboard is attached:
