Can't help but think that the lack of a normal wallet is part of the plan to keep ICO Ether off the market.  these guys are supposedly geniuses and they cannot release a wallet for the working class joes to use on - gasp - windows?

You really shouldn't interrupt with your platform and protocol related question this miner jamboree what Ethereum became. Please go away and let the miners perform their vital and very important work.

I have been one of the first supporters of Gavin and Vitalik, and their remarkable innovation Ethereum, and I am not sure Vitalik still read this read, but it is really disappointing that Vitalik has gone this path and let this fucking mining malarkey be part of an innovative idea (what Ethereum supposed to be).

The mining add absolutely nothing to the project, not short nor long term, brings nothing to the table except a few people create, (i.e."mine") coins and then talk nonsense and create hype because they want to sell the fucking coin. To build a community is very important for every digital currency project, but it is shouldn't be this way that the community development is reduced to this meaningless mining malarkey.

The plan was to bring real world businesses and users into the platform by providing them an innovative application. The meaningless mining is not the way to implement the serious business plan of Ethereum.

Etherwall ( http://www.etherwall.com/ ) is one that you can use with GETH but use at your own risk.

I think EVERYBODY getting little less than calc shows, it's "normal".

On which pool are you mining??
I tried 3 different pools till now, there are some differences in profit.

What's your favorite pool right now? im using ethereumpool.co. Seems decent. Only thing is you get paid when you mine 1 Eth.
