    I wish I had acccess to the machines at university which are idle most of the day or do simple office stuff (I know at least 60 boxen with 3Ghz P4s)..

    Unfortunatly a friend of mine isn't allowed to use office machines anymore (some may remember schluppy from the DF days)

    So I have no tricks in the bag...maybe someone else

    No Problem. We’ll bring our own beer and pizza. I just ordered two dozen pizzas and ten cases of extra stout and told them to deliver them to Laurenu2’s place for tonight. Hey Laurenu2? You don’t mind covering the tab till I get there do you? Looks like we’ll get started around midnight.

    Drinking a couple of IceHouse right now, got some nice Ferrari Carano Cabernet to go with my meal, hopefully, whilst I watch the Canes steamroller the Sabres in game 7... If they win, perhaps I'll even open a bottle of Kristal

    I hear ya there. I had to cut back from 25 rigs down to 9. Been creeping over the last few months, though. Back up to 14. I can't go much further.

    ... well, maybe just the one rig under construction. Waiting on a mobo.

    Power bills are the great limiter. The bills were getting obscene. All single core boxes, back then. Much more efficient production now.

    So who is the "XS_The_Machine" ?
    Is it one person? Or a Group of members like our Free-DC Mercenaries

    We'll put up a fight, but the science comes first...excellent work XtremeSystems!

    Lauren, very well put. You are credit to the team!

    This and other posts shows why Free Dc is such a respected opponent. We have fun but SCIENCE is the goal.

    That said, I must say PY needs a better stocked refrigerator. I will send a list of my favorite snacks and drinks
