Thanks for the input guys.
Another question though - How do you buy SC? i looked at one of the exchanges but it only accepts BTC for SC.
I guess there isint a way yet to pay USD for SC.

thanks for the correction to my calculations.... since I will only get .5 btc more per day, it is not worth it.. think I will go back to btc's.
coinotron.com is usually pretty accurate with the profitability ratios. I0C is still the most profitable right now.
CPU mining is out for pretty much everything. Too many people with GPUs.

So how hard are solid coins to mine now compaired to BTC?
Could i cpu mine them (SC)?
Could i cpu mine them (SC)?
I think cpu is out
BTC 5500Mhash 3.11 btc/perday
SC 5500Mhash 5.69 btc/perday (@0.015 exch rate) difficulty 15069
I used http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php to do the calculations
Wrong. Each Solidcoin block yields 32SolidCoins vs. 50Bitcoins per block.
As for CPU mining, assuming that you have suitably fast processor that can get maybe 4 or 5 MHash/sec, you will be able to mine a block maybe every few hundred days, and at an exchange rate of .015 solidcoins per bitcoin,. that is hardly worth it.
shoot, didn't think of the different block sizes.... anyone know of a solidcoin calculator??

edit: patch up the above calculation with 32/50*5.69=3.64
