    Nice one mate!!!

    :

    Amazing output over the long run

    How about some World Community Grid ?

    Many individual projects you can choose, good public research and worthy causes.

    Plus badges you can aim for with the points in individual levels (and team badges coming soon allegedly)

    Wow, what a huge milestone! Congrats!

    I'd agree with Bok on WCG or even Rosetta. All good causes.

    Freaking heck it's not is it.... oh yeah I suppose it will be seems a lifetime away. I've finally decided to just stick the HDD from another machine in that one and run the dualie as a cruncher with No freaking programs installed on it nor will there be, well apart from Winamp, coming soon... I know I'm lazy but also going to replace the XP3200+ now as well occasional "alert" saying 115C interally which I know is wrong I acknowledge the alert and well it's ok.

    Perseverance extreme.
    Another year? Older you get the quicker it goes and as the song goes (paraphrased) "Another year older and deeper in dept", appologies to all singers of THAT song if you can guess what it was....
    And another year till I get my next car Still happy so mebbe just replace this one and someone will get a bargain 3 year old with less than 10,000 on and I'll continue to be happy with a worst of 42UKMPG. How's the Prius doing mate? Don't keep it too long or the replacement bits become pricy. See you soon then? Cuppa tea?
