Wow guys, over a year later I see this!

Thank you for your responses!

It would of been interesting to have purchased a PC and GPU mined especially right before Bitcoin exploded at $1,000 in December of 2013 - although honestly MtGox might of wiped me out.

I've purchased a few ASICs last month, SHA ant Scypt ones and really like the performance.

The prices are much more reasonable than they would of been in late 2013/early 2014.

It may be too late, but I am interesting in eventually trying out the, for now, non ASIC mining alt currencies like Vert coin and such.
