This has been adequately answered previously. The previous answers are all correct. And, there is even some good advice in answer 2. At this point in Bitcoin mining it should be considered a hobby. You will not be make return on investment for a LONG time if ever, but it is fun if you like tinkering with computers!!

They should be the same, both have ~330MHash/s and I cant see the difference, except that the other is 2x the price ... I have mine working for about 14 days now and works great....

Technically, there is no difference. There are two different vendors with different pricing on the same product. I would recommend that you do some investigating to make an informed decision. As I type this, mining difficulty is about 89M. It's about to go to 100-110M. 2 weeks after that, mining difficulty may rise by another 20-30%, and this may continue into the forseeable future. Make sure you know what you buy into before jumping in.

search for bitcoinwizdom difficulty on your favorite web browser. There you can see the current rate, and they also have a calculator with power costs that will show what you can mine over time(more important), because you have to make a ROI(Return On Investment). If power is cheap, I think these are still a better deal right now than the S3's because these include a power supply. Also, with the current price of bitcoin, nothing is really making a ROI right now. Coin price may rise to change that...

I mine in a pool called BTC guild for BTC and they pair BTC mining with namecoin mining. also since nameoin uses sha 256 im pretty sure that the antminer will mine namecoin.

It varies substantially depending on how you have it setup. I use DGM and get nothing some days and the equivalent of $15-$30 other days (with 2 miners). I am using EclipseMC, they aren't huge but they have some nice benefits.

Different sellers. Cheaper one is sold by Amazon and the other one is sold by Brookstone.

It will still only operate at the 1x slots speed. 1x can handle 250 MB/sec vs 16x which can handle 4000 MB/sec. This is fine for mining coins because you don't need the bandwidth. For actual gaming though you'd probably want to put your card into the 16x slot and not the 1x slot.

This is the price they have been and this is the U1 the other is the newer cheaper u2 but specs are similar so for $12.99 I would try the new one, but don't load up on them until they prove reliable IMHO.http://minersource.net/products/antminer-u2-usb-miner looks like a great deal!

From what I know the newegg one may not be the oc variant while the amazon one is. The picture of the box on newegg seems to suggest it's the oc variant but it's not explicitly mentioned in the name unlike the amazon one. The specs of the newegg one on the details section is also for the non oc version. 1080mhz core vs 1030mhz core and 1410(5640)mhz memory vs 1325(5300)mhz memory. In the end it's up to you to decide which one is better. I bought the amazon one because it was a guranteed oc version and hopefully that meant a better binned card.

Right now I'm mineing with Eligius (a mining pool) and getting .0028 BTC/Day with a 200GH/s rig. That number will change depending on the network difficulty. While I've been mining the difficulty has only went up. Here is a neat calculator: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculator .Also this things network card is also an SSH server. I've been using it as a bojanked vpn server when I'm web surfing at Tim Hortons.

It's the same card, but different packaging. Also, the rebate is only from certain vendors. Buydig.com has a better price for the right packaging and is a vendor on the rebate.

Actually, I wouldn't count on it. When I ordered a 7950 it came with the promo, but it was listed on the site. When I ordered a 7970 it did not include the promo - nor was it listed. . .and if you don't get one you likely will not be able to after the fact. However, it could be others have still gotten the codes when they are not listed. I suggest you do a Google search. You will find many people complaining about not getting codes. All that said, I would still buy from Amazon over the seller with egg in their name, even if you don't get a code from Amazon. When I have had issues with electronic stuff Amazon's customer service has blown that competitor's service away.

The pictured miners are Clam Miners. They are kinda rare here.They make a few different models. But these guys are saying theyre selling AntMiner S1 units.So someone uploaded the wrong pics, or either before this was a S1 catalouge/ad, it was a Clam miner Listing.But either way no worries, these guys say they are selling 100% Antminer S1's
