Seems like one that needs popping up a few places.

What does everyone think?

I'm already in:D

But lost one off the borged boxen today and probably will loose another two the next days...:(

and probably will never get 7 promised boxen as they probably will go right into service... :swear: :bang:


All boxen talked about are dual xeon 3.2 Ghz...*sigh*

I'd be interested in D2OL or SoB gauntlet. F@H has always seemed like a waste to me.

I'm returning to F@H after this FAD gauntlet any how :D The units may be slow but you can still return at least one work unit a day on a AMD Athlon XP 1800, just do the small work units. The units may take a while, but you are given points based on your computers speed and how long it takes to complete the unit. They could make work units that complete in one minute and make them worth next to nothing, but that would be pointless. F@H rules :cheers:

doing a major (well for me anyway:D ) push on BOINC

CPDN for the long run, as it a pet DC project for me
einstein@home, should only run for the year, and it's KEWL!!!
LHC@home as it's major science, if they get it wrong they could blow up France............ hummm come to think about it:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

and BOK is going to get BOINC stats up before the summer,,,,, i can feel it in my water:D

:cheers:

Well you can always run the Timeless Tinkers as they do not have a deadline and you can cache up to 10 wu's. They are perfect for those machines not able to return work before the deadline and they are doing important science.
