How do I tell if I have any finished Wu's that haven't been sent? I'm afraid I do, but I don't keep track of my machines like I should.

Uh as far as I know you can't . If the console is having troubles sending a completed WU, because it can't connect to one of the servers, it will try to send it at a later time.

Well, I still use the graphical version.
I tried once to change over, couldn't get it to work right at first, got frustrated, and went back.
Anyway, is there a way to transfer a finished wu from one computer to computer? In other words, are they files?

Yes the work units can be transferred from one computer to another. It is referred to as sneakernetting. The problem is that the workunit must be sent back from the same computer that it was downloaded to. If it is sent back from a different computer it will not be recognized as a valid work unit and points will not be given.

heh, yeah, that would be a problem. Oh well, I guess I just have to wait and see if they can be sent on their merry own.
