...[dumb stuff]...[more dumb stuff]...So not too many new folks will take to BTC,unless they can mine it & that will be over very soon,already is for most due to power prices  Sad
Where do you people live that power price is an issue? I've still got 8 personal S7s running @ 775-800, paying $0.10 per KWh, and making a profit from them(and they were even making a profit when BTC was @ $700).

whe do u live that gets u power prices that low?? looking at the list of price per kwh in the us shows prices just under $.10 per kwh which fits the price listed in your post with one key piece of info left out and that is the cost of distribution. the cost of pepco in maryland is $.08xx per kwh but the line distribution fee jacks the cost per kwh to the better part of double the electricity cost. but if you tell me your location or the company u use i can verify ur numbers for u. i pay $0 for power but i watch my home usage like a hawk.

i should also add my "proof" before you go spewin on about it. here is a link to the pepco doc on pepcos website showing the generation trans and distrib of power costs per kwh:
