Can FPGA machines mine other cryptocurrencies (besides Bitcoin) ?

Thanks, I will do that.

I am working on buying dedicated mining rigs as we speak.  Mining with my laptop part time at 100 Mh/s is not going to cut it!

scarab, take a look at some of the alternate crypto currencies.  Theres alot more potential for that little power to mine in the short term with something like Feathercoin etc.  be prepared for wild speculation however!

Hey, thanks for letting me know.  I will try other pools and other coins.

Also, I found out about bitcoins pretty late in the game.  Last year, I also found out about 3D printers kind of late.  I deceided I wanted into the 3D printer game.  Now I am manufacturing and selling them--i'm a mech engineer.

Is there any other new tech on the horizon that I should take a look at as well?

Things related to making money directly like bitcoin?

BTC's aren't really profitable anymore to mine with GPU's.

The flavour of the month right now is Feathercoin.

With your card you'll probably get 30-40 FTC's per day. Which is about 20-30$ Smiley

Personally I felt that slush's pool wasn't that good unless I could keep a card on 24/7.  When I was BTC Mining I decided to move to BTCGuild due to the PPS system and get a more regular return there.  Slush's pool, while good and I was there for a while, was just too variable for me.

I am new to bitcoin as I finally decided to look into it last week.

I don't have a dedicated mining rig, though I am considering getting a setup of some kind.  I saw the stuff going on with ASICs right now.  Pretty difficult to decide if I want to buy an ASICs rig or not.

At any rate, I am currently using my laptop, which has a Radon HD 7850.  Its generating about 107 to 111 Mhash/s on average, but I can't let it run 24/7 so I haven't made anything to speak of.  I joined Slush's pool as it seemed a safe bet for a beginner.
