That was very interesting and helpful. Thanks, you guys. Especially Novak.

That did clear a lot of things up, and I do have a much better understanding of what FPGAs are. I did like your Lego vs injection molded sphere analogy.

Dexter, that's one I saw on Ebay.

100 BTC for that, at the time? Then again, it was probably a bargain for an early adopter. Incredible!

I take it you're one of those early adopters, huh?  Wink

Man, you guys have it good. I'm fighting just to get to 2BTC! Haha

I first found out about bitcoin in late 2012, and took interest in very early 2013. Wish I'd have had my current build at that time, I'd have really raked 'em in!
