We haven't had a monthly PUSH project for awhile, so Milkyway certainly fits the bill! Hopefully, we should be seeing more of our Northern Hemisphere members ramping up with Autumn and cooler temps approaching. Although, with the poor economy taking out a lot of people's investments/retirement, we may not see much quad-core purchasing...
Did you see that info on a 6 core was announced this week?

and a eight core?

Thanks vaughan !
Congratulations to Bender10 on reaching 500,000 points in Milkyway@Home. Nice crunching man!![]()
Ah you beat me to the congrats to Bender, I was watching his score as he got near 500K..., so I have to second the motion !!
Thanks !!
This project has been good to a lot of peopleas it keeps on pushing out all the wu's we can handle. That helps big time.
Any gains I have accomplished are due to my 'lack' of monkeying around with my confusers. I have been working ~14/7 for the last month. At this pace, I have not felt like doing any more than just peeking at the forum and 're-booting' any wayward confuser that I notice is having problems (mainly PS3Grid stuff).
Anyway, Back towork. My boss let me sleep in this morning so I could mow the lawn (it's raining) and do a trash run to the 'Transfer Station'. Then it's back to the salt mine, er...something like that. I'm working outside actually.
Oh, and it's getting coolerhere in the evenings, so the heat from the Dungeon is a little more welcome now than it was this summer...

Logic is the art of being wrong with confidence.
I know the feeling of work in the excess. My Time is precious and my off time non-existent. Last night was my first away from the overwhelming load of stuff to do on my desk. The temps are getting chillier here.
Milkyway has been good to me too, I bounced over many hurdles and even put on some points leads I had not had before. NO problems except one system that won't down load more then 2 work units at a time or my average would be higher.
Pulled my back and left side of my neck so now i look like the hunchback of Notre Dame, at least the systems on Milkyway give me no fuss! Nice BOINC Project.

Congrats to Bender10 och Mitchellds.
