Just wondering if this is an effective way of raking in a small income?

Also, does anyone here have any experience?

I did years ago but now its pointless you need a crazy powerful video card (or 4) and it still takes too long to get a single coin.
just turn your PC off overnight and you will save more money than you will make off bitcoins

Well, there are ASIC miners for your choosing. ASIC miners run anywhere from 4.5GH/s to 1500Gh/s. Assuming that you used a GPU to mine, you'd get anywhere from 150MH/s to 700MH/s. Judging by calculations, if you bought a 4.5GH/s miner, you'd get $18 a day, whilst only using 4.5 watts. However, the difficulty will rise once these miners hit the market, and by my predictions, you'd be making more towards $10 a day. It's definitely worth taking a look at, so here: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

I myself am going to wait this out, and after all of the preorders get shipped out, I'll see how the bitcoin economy is doing. If it's doing well and there's a chance I can turn a profit, then I'll definitely be getting one. I'd advise the same.
