PayPal has verified accounts: I can't be anonymous. So, I think the risk is on me since my identity will be known and I offered to send the funds first, but I totally see how someone could be suspicious.
Yes also unverified and hacked lol

Paypal to Paypal, at least you'd have some recourse were that a fraudulent transaction.
I'm still not sure why OP couldn't just use any number of $ > BTC exchanges. Hell, I'm new here and there seem at least a dozen ways.
4) get a vacuum cleaner and clean out that poor thing.
No! Never vacuum electronics, at least not using direct contact (the fabric brush, or crevice device):
a) the tip could easily cause damage to surface-mounted parts, and
b) electrostatic build-up could be created or transferred, especially with the plastic brushes
A can of compressed air is a much safer bet. Vacuuming your power supply and such from outside the grille is safe, even though compressed air would probably still be more effective. OTOH, having a vacuum cleaner nozzle nearby collecting all that airborne mess is acceptable.
cool.
I think I might be able to get two ATI Sapphire Radeon 5830 for $100.

That's a deal I would take, even if it were just to sell them on eBay for a profit.
I've had this philosophy since I started mining and haven't lost anything. (Yet :p) Though it did convince me to use Lastpass software for all my passwords, they're all different and all very secure. If you don't use it you should.
I may be new to bitcointalk, but to account security I am not.
Securing your wallet should include securing all your passwords, like using LastPass or another password manager. There's more than one way to skin a cat, and a determined thief might use more indirect theft of your personal information to gain increasing amounts of trust. Or might simply hijack your Facebook, Twitter, and email accounts to spite, embarrass or extort you.
Multiple password dumps have shown, time and again, rampant password reuse in the general online public (and if not reuse, poor use as in, easily guessed or bruteforce-cracked).
tl;dr
Up-armor all your passwords, today.
This is a difficult rule for those of us who prefer silence

I don't like posting something just for the sake of posting; neither am I going to spam to prove I'm not a spammer.
It does encourage me to break up otherwise succinct comments into many smaller posts, in order to increase my count.
I don't mean to belabor a point that's probably been made in one of the last 139 pages, but let me try to clarify.
So, as a newbie, I'm restricted to posting in Bitcoin Forum > Other > Newbies only. As someone who's only a month into mining and barely able to cash out my work, I'm not really sure what I can add to these conversations that would be novel, or not terribly repetitive. Besides asking a probably-stupid question like this.
