How many FPGA can be attached to one computer?

I am looking at this. Dual FPGA X6500 Mining Card Rev 3 (Without Heatsinks)

So we connect the card via USB and the card will mine?

Should I buy one FPGA or several ones? Where do I attach the FPGA? PCI? USB?

I think ~$600 for 400MH/s is not the best deal. Myself, I'm waiting for these to show up (although it's not sure if they are real or just nonsense), they offer 3.5GH/s for $149: http://news.yahoo.com/butterfly-labs-announces-next-generation-asic-lineup-054626776.html

1100% nonsense. BFL have a very bad reputation for never shipping products on time and over-estimating performance. It also makes no financial sense why they would price the product that cheaply. – Sean Chapman – 2012-06-23T12:29:25.373

1I don't think you should ask "how many should I buy" questions on SE. Please review your question to be non-personal and objective. You branch a bit too much from the title of your question. – ThePiachu – 2012-06-23T12:50:13.043

1An operating system may have limits. With USB, a driver may be needed to address devices beyond nine. Some hardware requires (or benefits from ) drivers too. – Stephen Gornick – 2012-06-23T18:03:49.913
