Hello and welcome to the world of Bitcoin. Glad that you decide to start mining Bitcoin. I am not an expert in the mining field but my advice would be not to mine on your laptop. You will be paying more electricity than what you mined. If you are a Raspberry Pi fan, you might also like the new 21 Bitcoin computer. It allow you to mine Bitcoin but I would not suggest you to mine on it. I would suggest you to buy some hardware created specifically for mining Bitcoin. Anyway, what is "4x Compacts"?
Also. Beware of online cloud mining services. Those are not a good idea.
" Anyway, what is "4x Compacts " sorry my mistake should have been 4x Gekko Compac's.
Thanks for the info
Hey. If you are looking for some profit, you should not buy the stick. USB Stick is not worth investing. Like what zodiac3011 said, if you are just learning, just go ahead. I would suggest you to mine other SHA256 coin using the USB Stick as Bitcoin mining is very competitive nowadays. If you have a chance, buy some stick that can mine Scrypt. Mine some Altcoin and sell them for Bitcoin.
