Anyways, I was just wondering If I could have some small donations to understand how bitcoins work. I have a offline wallet which is secure. When I have my miner, I will be sure to pay back the money that has been sent to me, just send me a pm with address and I'll get it right back to you. I'm going to go with a 5Gh/s Model from Butterfly Labs.

If you want to learn how Bitcoin works, your best bet is to get some coins on the Test net: https://tpfaucet.appspot.com/

You can viably mine with 5 GH/s on Test as well.

Define "viable." I've found 50 BTC blocks with my CPU on the testnet. Since testcoins have no monetary value, finding any block at all should be "viable."
