Re: Is my Mhash/s Good?

From the looks of it it seems you are mining from a laptop.

If you already leave your laptop on 24/7 and mine when you are not using it, why not. However, the overall hashrate of 39 Mhash/s isn't that great compared to a desktop graphics card.

But as what soulmann said, it wouldn't be profitable at all unless you have free electricity. You would be looking at about $6 a month with that setup (Calculator here: http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator )

I have estimated with my current hash rate I can get about 350 tacos a month from Taco Bell mining bitcoins.

Re: Am I mining or just running up my electric bill?

Ok, that makes sense.  I know that going solo is the hardway to go and would take longer to see any results.  I seen some posts on the GUIMiner support thread that showed quick results, so I wasn't sure if I had set everything up correctly. Was more concerned whether or not I was actually mining and that it's configured right.  I'm going to look into the pooling and research that.  Does your internet speed also affect your ability to mine? 

So if I understand correctly, if I'm solo mining.  I have to solve a whole block before receiving anything?  If I join a pool, I'm "paid" by how much work my machine does if that pool solves the block?

Yes that is correct, when joining a pool you receive consistent payouts depending on the amount of work/shares your machine does, as opposed to waiting x amount of days to solve one block solo mining until you receive the 25 BTC Bounty.
