heck yeah... we passed up BFG Technologies and held off ATI Technologies, which is huge seeing how much press ATI got with the launch of the F@H GPU clients a few months ago.

Next teams to pass up are Purdue, Hot Hardware and G4 Tech TV :)

That's the pass I'm looking forward to. Bastards ruined a perfectly good network, and the careers of a few decent folks. Most of the "celebs" from TechTV, and even the ZDTV days went on to do their own things and are doing well.[/b]

Well Darkstar... with the stat server problems of late, I can't really tell how much you're gaining on me, but if you pass me, congrats.

I was hoping to have my new machine up and running by now, but I haven't been able to get around to pick up the rest of the parts yet.

Iceman,

That would be cool, but i dont think its going to happen, got some older rigs running the GUI, which i will probably take down soon. But hey, at least we keep climbing up there!!

I took my SMP machine down today. It's been running 100% for 10 days straight, so I gave it the day off.

Take a look now... you have me by a couple slots, but it won't be that way for long. The SMP rig is back at it, and I hope to have the dedicated SMP folder running, if not by this weekend, then by the following weekend.

I'm using the SMP on my E6600 and graphical on my old Athlon. SMP runs both cores at 100% and I have the graphical turned up to max, running it at 100% on my "daily driver". I use this computer for email, surfing and such, and even with graphical running at 100% I hardly notice it slowing down at all for what I do. When I'm encoding movies or compressing/decompressing files, I take a pretty big hit in speed there, but I usually just let it run and come back later for the files.

nice. I'm trying to figure out how I can budget a new folding machine every few months... but I haven't quite got it nailed down yet. ;)

I'm hooked, even folding on my laptops.... :rolleyes:
