    Thanks for the reply guys. It’s a lot to soak up. I guess it just seems kind of unfair in a way but, that is life. And I did see someone else here ( I forget who) who was consistently getting even less credit per WU than me. I vented, and now I am better.

    I kind of worry that I one night I will wake up to a mushroom cloud of what was once was my “work” computer. Probably not the smartest thing to run it 24/7 @ 100% for weeks straight. I just want to get the max throughput I can while it is still alive. I’m thinking I should probably build another unit and use this one a little less. At work I use 4 computers (all non AMD) and I used them for BOINC…….that is, until the company tattle-tale found out. Before that he made a grand scale attempt to get me fired for using a MAC to transfer an album to an employees Ipod. He is a real interesting character.

    My devotion to BURP is simply because we are banding together to come from behind and overtake the Intel team. That’s enough for me to stay. And BOINC gives me one more thing to ponder in my car, where I spend a lot of time.

    The photo was taken on a Saturday afternoon. No accidents, no construction, just lots of people.

    I’m thinking of buying a ThinkPad T61 with a C2D. Does this make me a bad person?
