    Well batch 3 for the Avalon was priced at $5400 I think and it sold out quick. BFL probably saw that and said shit let's cash in. But then Avalon had a working product so they could up their prices.

    Well BFL just upped their prices and lowered their performance. So that might keep people from buying more. They claim they will start shipping in the last half of April but who knows with them. Has a lot of people with their jimmies all rustled over at bitcointalk.org over it but then anything...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    If I recall, it was said in the book that the dragons would continue to grow unless they were confined, that's why they built the dragon pits in KL. Also, no surprise but its been renewed for season 4 http://www.thewrap.com/tv/article/ga...season-4-83586

    BFL seems to be the cheaper route but you'll be waiting a while, if you order now, its still going to be months before you'll get it and that's assuming they start shipping sometime in April. Avalon I think is sold out of batch 3 already. I ordered 3 japaleno from BFL in August last year. I...

    Its ripe for a crash that's for sure but at least its getting a lot of press lately. But I'm enjoying it now with my 1g/hs I'm making around $230 a month. Little extra spending cash is never a bad thing.

    I think that has helped drive the price up to $90 a coin. BFL is suppose to be close go shipping, so the increase in network hash and difficulty might drive the price down though.

    The pool I mine at btcguild lost 1254 coins from the hot wallet of the pool because of the issue. 16 users got those coins, so far only one user has returned those I'll gotten coins. The guy that ran the pool basically lost 60k because of it. A bunch of people are donating hashing power to the...

    SimCity

    I really wanted Simcity to be a good game. It was the first pc game that I ever bought. I was leery of the online aspect but the concept seemed really cool. If nothing else, it made me pull out my simcity 4 cd, install it and mod it to hell to have a little fun

    I think tea was right at least about the price. Current price is $35, high today was $49. That's a hell of a drop.

    You might try a BFL Jalapeno, those are $149 a pop. Granted they haven't shipped any yet and if you ordered today, you probably wouldn't see a product until June or July at the earliest. At least a video card you can use for gaming.

    Nvidia cards generally suck at mining. You can find the hardware comparisonhere I'd say if you really want to get into mining, look at asic rather than video cards. Avalon is the only one that has shipped any units so far, BFL is suppose to shipping soon or buy shares in ASICminer, they're...

    I'm just shy of 1 g\hs and it takes me about 1 month to generate 5 btc at current prices it will net me $230. Thankfully I can do this at work where the electricity is free. The price per coin has gone up a lot recently, like $20 in the past 2 weeks or so. I'd look for it to drop fast soon. No...

    Bandwidth caps. Which limit people from streaming unlimited from sites like netflix. They are doing it to protect their video profits. Hell they already have a 90% profit margin on the internet side and bandwidth caps allow them to charge more. stop the cap has a lot of good articles about...

    That is correct and the reason we will never see ala carte. Though I think cox just sued Viacom for forcing the bundling of their shit channels with their good ones.

    Direct Tv

    I love my directv, had it for 5 years now. Only thing I don't like is the HD fee, which I currently get a credit for, just a pain calling up and asking for it. I dig the whole home DVR. I also have cable but I have that for phone for my alarm and internet, it was cheaper to get a tripleplay but...

    The issue I have with the new limited data plans is that you are stuck paying money more for less data. I got my nexus right before Verizon switched to their limited data plans so I'm good for another year or so before I'd consider upgrading my phone and have to think about giving up the...

    I just put my house up for sale and my agent put the house on a site called listingbook. It was the first I had heard of it but it seems the same as MLS. I still prefer zillow though for looking for homes.
