Congrats everyone!!!
I think today will be one of the highest days for a while. We've already met our daily point average and we still have over half of the day left!

Good link from there they can get the links on the left side!! Not that I never tried before!!

I ran 11 (old) computers and xboxs (tried gamecubes, they had some issues) with this for a few months a little over a year ago. Got over 250 wu and almost 40k points... Then the electric bill got too high

... but still, recycling old computers for this purpose looked really good on a college application for volunteer work. I'm still in the top 10% of contributors (not really hard, but again, looks good on a volunteer application). Good luck, and happy folding.

Damn man....

Time for me to start buying and putting together cheap computers. Pretty soon I'll have 6 or 7 cheap 2Ghz Athlon's running with integrated graphics and 512MB ram each trying to fold my way up.

That brings up a question I thought of - which is more effective: 2 or 3 lesser computers (P3's or early P4's), or 1 "good" computer like a dual core Intel and the like?

Congrats everyone! According to http://folding.extremeoverclocking.c...php?s=&t=44358
we are now past 1300 and on into flying past all the teams in the 1200s rankings

Saurian · 10-22-2006, 02:21 AM

Awesome!

If only I could get the girlfriend's computer to download WU's and fold fo rme.

I am totally amazed. When we upped the average score to just over 4000 points per day on the 20th, I assumed the production would go down to normal at around 3400 or so. However, we have successfully gotten over 4000 points both today and yesterday!!
