Dont get me wrong, i support TRC, but its as ideal as other alts for fpga mining (frc (NO!), ruc, ppc etc etc)

I would love to have an fpga thou.... If anyone wants to sell his for cheap pm me Tongue

True, true. :-) I also would love to have an FPGA. :-)

With the arrival (albeit slow arrival) of ASIC some GPU miners are going to have to face the decision of either shutting down or switching coins. Litecoin is the obvious initial coin of choice, but it is not mineable by FPGA's currently. FPGA's are for the most part not suited for resale and will soon be obsolete for mining Bitcoin (although there are trade in programs available for some ASIC manufacturers- but not all, certainly no those who are now out of buisness). The best alternative for FPGA miners would be to mine Terracoin, as it will be awhile (most likely at least until second generation ASIC) before ASIC miners have an economic incentive to mine TRC.
