Alternate cryptocurrencies can be mined using the same hardware as for mining Bitcoins (mostly SHA-256 alt coins). While bitcoin mining is going to use FPGA and ASIC devices, scrypt based alt coins can be mined using GPU cards.
Altcoins using SHA-256, the same hashing algorithm as Bitcoin include:
NMC Namecoin
PPC Peercoin
DVC Devcoin
TRC Terracoin
BTE Bytecoin
IXC Ixcoin
I0C I0coin
FRC Freicoin
XJO Joulecoin
ZET Zetacoin
ASC -AsicCoin
DEM Deutsche eMark
UNO Unobtanium
PT Platinum Coin
BLC Blakecoin
RKC Reikicoin
TIT Titcoin
