    Thanks for join in
    Yeah i think so. I don't know them directly. They have dual soket E5 and quad socket E7 machines from a few years ago
    They usually are in Gridcoin team to amortise electricity bill
    One of them has a Farm (literally) with a 50kw solar panell roof.

    I've taken a few machines off PrimeGrid and switched them to this WCG challenge. Let's see how we go. According to bok's stats at Free-DC we have many people participating that never visit our forum.
