Gotta love yellow 12/2 Romex...

I only had to add 3 dedicated circuits in the basement for my setup. It does pay to be an amateur electrician, hiring one would have been expensive!

So no Mozy? Even if they have free accounts?

Mozy does have a free option (it is what I am using). They do kind of hide it on their site though.

Can you do similar for Mozy? I bought the dropbox increase from you and am wondering if you are able to do the same for mozy? Mozy offers an extra 1gb per 4 referrals. maybe you could update your method and do a dropbox increase and a mozy increase with each of your VMs.

Let me know. I can be your guinea pig.

I am getting security warnings from Avast antivirus that is preventing me from accessing just the website on one of my non-mining machines... Anyone else running into this? If is turn off 'Network Shield' I can access it... Problem is, there is no exclusion table for the Network Shield so I can whitelist ozcoin....

Here is the 'More Info' from Avast:

$800 each shipped ground to the US. Any takers? Maybe I will part them out if I can't get any takers on complete rigs.

$600 per rig plus shipping. That's what it costs me to build a 1.2GH rig.
You can't buy 1.2GH/s worth of cards for $600
Maybe not new (well, not since BensOutlet.com's $140 for brand new 5870s), but anything goes on the used market.
You may be able to find the cards for $600 used, but nothing else. Regardless, I am not interested in letting them go for $600. That is half of what I paid for them and they have a lot of life left in them.

I have a Kill-a-Watt on 2 of the rigs.

Rig 1: 1.197GHs - 1,371,626 shares since GUIMiner Update
Rig 2: This doubles as my gaming machine and not for sale
Rig 3: 1.214GHs - 575,707 shares since last reboot
Rig 4: 1.196GHs - 1,369,556 shares since GUIMiner Update
Rig 5: 1.242GHs - 1,424,775 shares since GUIMiner Update (This rig has 3x 6870 and 1x 5850 - 6870s are running 299.4 Mhash and the 5850 is running at 344.4 Mhash) 803 watts at the plug
Rig 6: 1.203Hs - 1,378,239 shares since GUIMiner Update 721 watts at the plug

I am clearly not getting the 2.3Mh/w that quattro claims is possible, but I am within the examples on the wiki.  I know I could tweak it a lot more to save a few watts here or there, but I am motivated by stability. I found something stable and stuck with it.

@quattro, how are you getting an extra gh/s out of your 4x6870 rigs over me? What kind of setup are you running.

EDIT: I misread that the same as mousepotato. I knew 600Mh/s sounded like way too much out of a 6870.

Okay, so we know Miner 612 isn't interested... Anyone else? Make an offer for one or a couple.  I may let them go cheap to shut the wife up.

Yikes? I am pretty sure they aren't terrible on power (even according to the wiki card comparison).

My 6870's are better on power than my 5850s.

I have 5 rigs total for sale.

Specs for each:
MSI 890FXA-GD70 Motherboard
Athlon II X2 245 or AMD Sempron 140
2GB GSkill DDR3
850 Watt Corsair TX850 V2
4x 6870 (2 plugged direct into MB and 2 using PCI-E x16 extenders - for better airflow)

They aren't in cases, I have them sitting on a 2 shelf wire rack (maybe 2ft x 4ft) so there are 4 rigs on the shelf with fans pushing and pulling from both sides. The are all superstable.

They are all running win7 with GUIMiner 2012.02.19 and LogMeIn (haven't needed to see them in quite some time - I sporadically check on them with logmein).

Rig 1: 1.197GHs - 1,371,626 shares since GUIMiner Update
Rig 2: This doubles as my gaming machine and not for sale
Rig 3: 1.214GHs - 575,707 shares since last reboot
Rig 4: 1.196GHs - 1,369,556 shares since GUIMiner Update
Rig 5: 1.242GHs - 1,424,775 shares since GUIMiner Update (This rig has 3x 6870 and 1x 5850 - 6870s are running 299.4 Mhash and the 5850 is running at 344.4 Mhash)
Rig 6: 1.203Hs - 1,378,239 shares since GUIMiner Update

1,4,5,6 have been running non stop for much longer than the shares above. Their stats reset when I updated GUIMiner on 2/20. Rig 3 was rebooted about 3 weeks ago when I had to move some wires.  They are all very stable. Only reason I would part with them is for the rightrice and to get the wife off my ass about the heat and fan noise.

I am located in Ohio (to figure shipping cost). I have all original boxes, manuals, cd's, everything. Let me know if you (or anyone else) is interested. I am willing to take all offers into consideration.

I MAY be looking to get out... My rigs aren't as high-density as you may want, but figured I would throw them out there.

Re: MTGOX took $1000USD out of my account, said 'accidently sent a withdrawal 2x'

As for the fiscal year is concerned many countries, including Japan does not follow European or North American calendar and in Japan the fiscal year ends March 31 and Start April 1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_calendar

The first day of April has broad significance in Japan. It marks the beginning of the government's fiscal year. Many corporations follow suit. In addition, corporations often form or merge on that date. In recent years, municipalities have preferred it for mergers. On this date, many new employees begin their jobs, and it is the start of many real-estate leases. The school year begins on April 1.

I am not worried when your fiscal year ends. I was worried that March 31 would come and go with no results and I would get an email from support saying 'well that happened last fiscal year, so we can't change anything.' Or that you were trying to cook the books for whatever reason... Or that this had happened to many other users who hadn't realized that you were wrong and just said 'okay here is another $1,000 to take care of my zero balance.' I hope you haven't incorrectly reversed double transactions to any of your other users...

Crazy how it took this post to fix this (it is fixed, fyi).

Why not do your investigation first and then go after the money when you are SURE THERE WAS AN ERROR? Nothing good can come from 'shoot first, ask questions later.'

Why did it take the fucking idiots at support.mtgox.com 8 days to not come up with an answer but it took you 15 minutes?

I just pulled all of my BTC from MtGox and not sure if I will use it again thanks to this little hostage situation. Go ahead and PM me with a nice permanent fee discount and I will consider coming back.
