Well I just offered some poor hapless chap five hundred quid for a 50 Ghs BFL machine. He ordered it at the beginning of the year and just got it, but has no use for it now.

Of course I am newbie central so may be really foolish offering anything at all for such a slow piece of kit, likely to be swallowed up any minute by all the better ones coming soon.

But the main thing is it's plug and play. Now I support bitcoin, and have made a few bob mining with gpus and then those usb sticks, mostly thanks to Dr.Haribo, eleutheria and you other kind folks. But when it comes to splicing wires, or dare I say it, opening up my poor frazzled pc (she is boinc-ing all the time as well) to tinker inside, well, I reach my limit. I can't overclock a sausage and nearly had to be carried away by the white squad when i realised my blue fury needed a command line to get working.

So my dream is this: he swallows his pride and accepts my gut-wrenchingingly low offer in order to be shot of the thing; I race home, plug and play; and maybe ROI 100%?
