 i can now confirm that they're paying out both mining and also
commission.  the first lot was only USD $14 which is extraordinarily
low... but it's the first day and they *might* be taking the time of

 it actually took me a while - i just didn't mention it until the 30
days on commissioning equipment was nearly up.  also i'm unusual in
both understanding MLMs (good and bad) *and* bitcoin mining.
