A few questions about your setup...

1. Are you running a "best efficiency" pool like multipool, or are you manually switching all your miners to the best alt coin?
2. To check on, or make changes to the miners, do you have to remote (VNC, RDP, etc.) into each one? or do you use some other centralized way?
3. How often do you exchange mined coins to Bitcoin? Daily? Weekly? And how much time do you spend doing it?
4. Are you keeping track of HW expenditures vs. income? What is your estimation for ROI?

1). I mine multiple Scrypt coins and have it auto switch using a new app called Multi-miner.. Check it out, it's been amazing! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=248173.0
2). Have Switched PDUs (cut turn off and on outlet for lockups), Raritan KVM and VNC so I remotely control every level. It's 14 miles away, and I only go in for hardware failures.
3). Haven't automated selling coins, and since I'm hoarding LTC a bit for speculation, the converting to BTC depends on coin. FTC I convert daily, as with most Alts
4). Yes, all expenses are tracked for tax purposes. ROI was projected at 6 months back in April, factoring in selling equipment for 30% of original cost (I could easily sell for 80% now). My ROI also assumed we'd be at 1100 difficulty by September 1st, and already over 1000 now, so it's working out much better than projected.
