If you can take efforts to find pages on do-follow blogs which have high pagerank and few comments and then putting comments that don't like spam - you'll get rewards. I got one of my 1 month old sites on page #1 of all 3 search engines for a major keyword just by blog commenting and social bookmarking.

Are you willing to share with us an idea of how major your "major" keyword is, how many comments you made and on what PR of site? Just as a flavour of what's doable.
Cheers.

Hmmmm,
This is something I have not come across, but then again you never know.
Sometime, you have to test, and not just assume that what big G say goes.
I myself doubt very much the "nofollow" rule, after specifically targeting "nofollow" blogs and commenting on them, then finding the link in my yahoo site search.
Very interesting indeed.
I think the only way to find out is to test.

I have many PR0 sites ranking at #1 because of the sheer number of backlinks I created to these sites. A low PR site can outweigh a high PR site due to it's having a ton more backlinks. Conversely, a site with few backlinks but all from high PR sites can earn itself a high PR and rank above some sites with lots more backlinks. I try for a mix of both - loads of backlinks but some quality ones included and links from authority sites & sites such as DMOZ.
For this reason I still use blog commenting as a big part of my 'mix'.

An OBL of 50 does not make a blog worthless for comment spam.
The higher the PR of the page, the more outbound links youh can have present while still getting some benefits.
With a PR 0 or 1 or 2 page, anything above 50 is a waste of time unless it's relevant or carries some other kind of authority.
PR3, I would say up to 100 and you will get some benefits.
PR4, 150
PR5, 200
PR6, 300
PR7, 500
Remember, PR is an important indicator of link-power but it is not the whole story. There may be other good reasons besides PR to get your link onto a page.

I have also seen my website ranking up so high just in few weeks of blog commenting on high PR sites. Amazing

I push sites with little more than comment spam. Variety seems to be a really important factor as well as page rank.
I see these auto approve df blogs as targets of opportunity and if the highest pr page is a NA or 0, I still drop links because I am already there and because I can, so why not.
Works for me very well.

This was the first thing I thought of when I first saw this thread.
To decide that blog comments are worthless simply because their OBL waters down the value of PR from the site is a pretty shortsighted way of looking at links. As Micallef has said, there's more to consider than just PR.

I will share my experience. One of the websites I rank for shows up on page 1 for a quite competitive keyword. We're talking about lots and lots of backlinks to stay there comfortably...
As you can imagine I'm not immune to some temperamental changes and certain weeks I'm able to rank #1. some days I'm #4 and it happened to go down on #9, but always on serp #1 since I'm a diligent guy... To my best knowledge what every single time increased my position has always been a good run of scrapebox with ~1k backlinks at a time.
The number of times per week I repeat the operation vary. I don't really pay attention to the PR since it's all on autopilot once I removed the duplicates (URLs and domains). Also I DO NOT ping the results so the growth seems more natural and every time I was able to climb up and win back a better ranking.
Until my competitors do the same shit I do, I suppose.
So I suspect this thing of the OBL > 50 is largely a myth or at least not so relevant.

It may not help your page rank, but page rank isn't the only thing that matters.
But if a link is still a link why not just Xrumer it and get 10,000?
