Thanks for the math Bert! not much on coding myself, so your post helped drive the point home. what are the odds of a low power radeon showing up on the scene that works great for mining...lol
I would find it hard to believe that AMD(ATI) have not noticed some rise in their profits recently and that they would not try and capitalise on it. But as to whether they can bring some low power product to market, at a price people are willing to pay, in less than a year is a different question.
