Wow! I hadn't heard of folding@home. I have now set up all three of my PC's to run it, and am installing OSX on my G3 so that I can run it on there. Hell, if I had OSX for Lisa's imac, I'd run it on there too! So 2 of the comps will be pretty much dedicated to folding@home, and the mac will be too, but my gamer will be on and off.....you know? Then when I get to work Monday, I'll install it on 5-7 PC's there too! Hurrah for team 596!.....Hell ya!

Alright Joe! Maybe you will have a chance to catch OMFG. I got multiple machines running but they don't have the processing power to do too much.

I am new to modding so I am just looking around reading about the Do's and Don't before I start something. Also, trying to get some ideas. The one thing I have already learned is that Once you start you will never be finished,

And Also, to paint the damn drives

Number one "Don't" is: Don't post in a thread that has nothing to do with what you want!

WU's vary in size Sinasster, so most likely you got a fairly large one,but it will be worth more points my 900mhz athlon has finished 3 WU's in the last 3 or 4 days

Gawd, how long is this gonna last? Every time I leave and come back I run around to each machine to see how much they have accomplished....LOL! I thought I'd be banging out those WU's.....hehe, it looks as though each machine will probably do 1 or a little over 1 WU everyday.

*Eyeballs a new dual processor G4 and wonders how many WU's it will do a day*

I gather that I won't show up on the stats until one of the machines has completed a complete WU?

I checked on 11115 and this is what I came up with:

Rank User Score / WU
1 BiohazardPC / 9.59 / 3
2 putwig / 6.37 / 2
3 Zer0 / 5.59 / 1
4 Skew / 5 / 1

We need to either consolidate the team points or make sure everyone is on 596.

596:
Rank User Score WU
1 OMFG_dude_WTF 35.54 7
2 GlitterKill 28.16 7
3 bigakita 26.77 8
4 DuckWarrior 13.18 3
5 Scapegoat 12.59 3
6 putwig 11.18 2
7 Skew 10.59 2
8 Tdigweed 9.59 3
9 STosto 5.59 1
10 Snafu 5.59 1

Dont sweat it Joe, at 6 I was at 50% now its almost 1 and im at 75% I better get massive points for this one BA is getting away from me!

Make sure everyone is on 596. That is the easiest option. Still waiting on word if GK got ahold of SNY.

I'm not pulling away, just trying to keep up with GK and OMFG, what the hell are those dudes running?

I signed up too. Doubt I'll contribute much because I don't run my systems 24/7. (We have really bad power reliability here, we get outages once every couple months, sometimes for extended durations like a half hour to an hour.) But I'm accounted for.

Question: If you shutdown in the middle of processing a WU, does it continue where it left off when you restart (kinda like a download manager)?

The team is kicking ass! We've already gained about 400 positions in the standings.
