I think eth the coin isn't a great speculative investment right now, but the technology is cool. One of the things I like about it is that it's GPU mineable. So if you want to play around with it, it's actually possible to get some for 'free', unlike with Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is also GPU mineable.
Yes but you won't make any money. The fastest GPU you can buy right now will mine maybe 50c worth of bitcoin in the next 12 months if you run it 24/7.
