Mining sort of blew up at work in late November, with a bunch of us jumping on GPU buys (7950's for ~$230? YES PLEASE) and utilizing some spare compute power that we have lying around the server room.
So far a few of us have headed off in different directions, some building their own pools, some solo mining, but I've got two rigs at a combined of about 3MH/s running for about a month now. I was trying to target specific coins (WDC, LTC, even DOGE when it was released and was stupid profitable) but have now settled down on multi-pool mining.
What's cool is that if this keeps up* I stand to cover the costs of my co-pay for our baby due in June with all associated jokes about how, in America, it's damn expensive to have a kid.
