    I have a question. How many of you have kids that are as computer nuts as you are? Can you get them to ask their friends to join us? What the heck it's worth a shot. Just give them the Amdusers website and ask them to stop by.

    Non of my friends are very tech savvy.. I think the best PC out of all of them is a P3 700MHz. That ought to kick out an whopping 3 a day. Plus he never has it on. He checks his email and then turns it off. The thing still has Windows 98 on it and 128 MB of RAM. I should know... I gave it to him...

    Those Blueberry guys are getting close to our daily production levels again...

    I thought they'd be getting bored by now. Oh well if it's a long drawn out fight they want then it's a long drawn out fight they get.

    What amazes me most is that we have 30 members less than them and we are still kicking their ass

    I think much of the production differance is in that most of the large farms on our team are owned by the members. I see that many of their's are work computers that they have borged. Sometimes with machines you just don't have the control and the numbers go up and down like a yoyo. I do see that their numbers drop like a rock on weekends. Of course outlander and Shy are exceptions. Chris don't they let you talk or read in your own forum? lol

    Personally my view on people who use work machines without consent are as bad as Wate who installed BOINC trojan's on to unsuspecting users machines. I have NEVER installed any DC project to any work machines because I have the utter respect for work policies.

    Unless you are a director or run your own business then their is NO reason why you should install any DC project onto a work computer. It's against work policy to adversely affect a companies equipment or install your own software.

    If you do then you are creating unfair levels in a competition that is based on installing DC projects to your OWN computers. Be fair in line with the competition.

    I didn't say that they didn't have permission. Maybe they do. It's just that there is less availability when you are using a work machine so there isn't the same percentage of productivity. I don't think that most people would risk their job just to excell at DC'ing. And their people seem very nice just like ours. It's just a game to play along with our hobby. LOL and the talking crap seems to be part of it. For some, more than others.
