I don't know the first thing about it... I've mined for phuks a bit but I wouldn't mind doing it a bit on my own... how would that translate into actual currency? I do have 5 or 6 old quad cores lying around...

Bitcoin is out of reach unless you want to sink $1000s into bitcoin-specific equipment that will be outdated by the end of the year. You can mine many altcoins with a normal everyday GPU and even some CPUs. Whattomine.com will give you an idea of what you can expect moneywise from different coins. I've been messing around with it for a few months. Currently mining vertcoin. Don't expect to make a lot of money unless you want to build a mining rig.
