Correct, you are not looking at the right mining hardware. That miner is absurdly obsolete. Unless you're getting them for 20 cents each, drop that idea right away.
Instead buy one of these;

It will by itself, with no need of any additional hardware, completely outclass those 9 USB stick.
Well done in doing your research before binge buying.

thanks for that info. bit coin is defiantly a lot to learn.
so if i use 9x https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/run-2-closedsidehack-stickgekkoscience-compac-official-sales-thread-1126705 on that usb bar id have a decent simple setup right?
Edit: they will work on mac right. also dose anyone have a mac OS X app recommendation?
Not really a point in getting 9, one to learn, even 9 is a tiny amount of hashrate. But its in the low 3 digit GH/s (which is very low). (Better than your single GH digit you'D get with 9 of the first ones you mentioned) These are not cost effective, they're just a toy to give you an idea for mining. Not a ROI item.
And huh, nobody use or like mac so not much dev is made for them. But Linux is free, so..
But nowadays the miners all have controllers designed for them so you dont need to run them off a PC of any sort. A RasPi would run them and be actually useful.
