welcome back crossg and chriso

and don't worry too much Arachne, you'll pass me soon enough

LOOOOL, I did wonder

(Famous last words as Jwill suddenly fires up 6 more CPUs...)

lol, I have been considering getting a cheap 3800x2 for the spare junk in teh closet to make a 24x7 smp rig, but I kinda blew my wad on a laptop (which is folding ATM ) and a bunch of accessories
I think I've spend almost as much on accessories as I did on the laptop

That's a good idea, better start saving

Never saw the attraction in lappies myself. Titchy little keyboards, no sir

Time to update the ol' sig with the lappy specs though methinks

I definitely prefer my desktop, but the laptop is convenient with the wifi and all, and I got a usb mouse so I can live with teh keyboard as long as I don't have to use the %#*&@ touchpad

one benefit of all this spending is now I have a wireless network so when I can swing the $60 for an x2 I'll be able to stuff the rig anywhere in the house I want

<<<<<<<< updating sig now

Yeah .. can't beat it
Just spent $250au on 3x 108Mbps access points & a PCI 108mb/s card (for the GF) so I can bridge networks, network ye olde Xbox (the entertainment centre) and get rid of that cable strecthing between rooms from my gigabit local network (My PC's & server) and the ADSL modem

Hardcoreccomputer nut here

God's help those 5 poor bastards with wifi networks nearby .... my 108Mb/s AP's/bridges piss all over the 802.11G standard & saturate the frequency band on channel 6 - aka maximum interference with neighbours

I woldn't be surprised if you can pick up a 802.11G based 108Mb/s network 50KM's away

Hahahaha, evil

@jwill - the touchpad, arrrgh that's another thing ...good to see the sig update

Oooh. I just passed Jwill in the F@H page stats. Only just though so I wonder how long it'll last

woohoo! congrats

Awww bless, thanks

The way crossg's going I doubt it'll last

Preparing myself......

I'm about to be run over by Arachne very shortly. I have my pain meds, wish me luck, this is gonna hurt

Maybe swap some of your WCG pcs to FAH?

NEVER!!!

I'll be gentle I promise

You have at least 24 hours to get one more in though, I'm 39% done on one, and 54% on the other, both 2653s

well, sending my last WU for this year, and failiing at it

i'm gonna stop WCG'ing and FAH'ing for the time being, as i'm in need for each single % of the CPU... photoshopping and InDesigning ... preparing my Portfolio as i'm leaving this HellOnEarth TrialVersion for good ... departure in a matter of days... when i get a better job, i'll get a better PC, and i'll be back in the fold

i think i'm gonna have to send this WU to debro.. again

I suppose I can spare a core or two

well.. i tried all here ... WU is not uploading ...

i'm sending the packed WU to you debro (folding at cdfreaks)... it's the last one for a while though

oh.. and thanx

WU sent

Right, thanks to a nice OS reinstall (Linux only for now, still not put XP on) I have a working client! Back to folding for me, gotta get that score up!

Hey welcome back Chriso!

And it looks like Debro is climbing up very fast. I guess that Quad is really pushing it. Must be overclocked more than 3.2GHz. My Q6600 is 3.0 Ghz and it folds 9 mins per or around 16 hours per project.

If only I had the PCs you all have access to. Look what I have the joy of running everything on!
