I'm estimating with that laptop you'll probably get MAX 200 h/s mining XMR... at today's price that's about $0.39/day, and only if you're mining the full 24 hours. If you speed 8hrs at work that's $0.13 per day.
ROI would be: 15358.69 days, which is 42.07860274 years. This is assuming you go to work 365 days a year. LOL
Better solution: Buy a cheap laptop and build and ACTUAL RIG!!
With today's prices, RIO is only 4-6 months.

If i do an actual rig though I get stuck paying electricity d: .20 per kw was mainly the reason I was looking to multi task it in this fashion.
Also should be able to swing a 540 hashrate with the 1070 just using minergate ~
There is a recent version of CCMINER which will do 650-700h/s in cryptonight on a 1070.
But I thought you were referring to a laptop with a 1060 in it, not a 1070?
Between the two choices - the $1500 version has a 1060 (est 250-350 hash) the 1800 has a 1070 (est 540-650 hash)
I waa thinking its ineffective paying 300 for that upgrade but ~ almost doubling the hashrate makes me indecisive.
Can't take that to work with me though -> therefore the .20c electricity cost would kill me.
if its out in the open, with others trying to work i get why it wouldn't be suitable, but if its a matter of there's a spare room and you can place it there, i don't see why it'd be an issue.
plus $7 daily returns for a coffee/monero or two, that is after withdrawal and tx fees.
as for home use, yes, you'll end up in the negative forking out electricity expenses :/
only other thought is to save up for a larger rig and find a decent colo provider in a state where kWh are below 10 cents
Yeah itd be out in the open, also I wouldn't trust leaving it out of sight with my coworkers. Its becoming a tricky thing given the circumstances lol
