    In my lifetime I have owned 5 different Jeeps, four CJ-5's and one CJ-2A, I never rolled a Jeep but I got close one time with climbing a hill in my 1973 all metal roofed CJ-5, I can go anywhere feeling when you drive that little monster. I dented the roof line on the left side of the top of the metal canopy on ascending a hill one crazy night, while descending I missed that gawd awful tree and landed in the pond instead, no worries I was water proof and drove through the pond to the other side safely. My Passengers all left my company as soon as I was on dry land and the vehicle stopped, What did I do? I asked...

    Oh nothing... I'm sure they were just late for some other appointment and had to leave in a hurry...

    How many years did each jeep served you in average? I hope you got your money worth out of them.

    I think the metal topped was my 1970 (It lasted about 2 years in my lifetime), I had a 1967 with that Buick V-6 and it never got wet, what a sweet machine (Lifetime about 18 months - I bought a chevy blazer to replace her). I had a 1973 but it was terminal and I parted it out after forgetting to look under the bonnet before I threw down the cash. The CJ-2A I bought in May of 1990 for $2,500.oo and in October on a hunch from some other automobile friends who suggested I take it to one of the largest Antique car show/sell events in Hershey PA, I went and sold the beast on the spot for $5,000.oo and walked home. ( Top speed in the 2A was only 53 mph or so) - Brucifier will tell you the gear ratio is so awesome for rock climbing but not much more! I had a 1969 that I bought and sold to a friend who then could not keep her because he needed money as his girlfriend was pregnant and Jeeps were frowned at by her family, so I bought it back fixed it up for me ( Too many girlie things irked me) And I owned the goddess till I went with a sports car. This was the last one I owned and still know where she is parked after the guy I sold it too blew the engine the week after it became his.

    Brucifier I am single but only when I am with a women of such horsepower/strength only then do I tell people I am dating! A man and his Jeep is a Bond forever!

    How nice to see some crunchers on rc5-72 for yesterday's stats on the team! So I moved some gpu's back over to rc5-72 also which should show up in tomorrows stats. Almost like old times! lol

    Good to hear.
    We are right behind the KWSN, but they got the edge on us today.

    Maybe we'll have the edge on them after the Pentathlon is finished?

    My guess is that this is a direct function of those of us running the BOINC Moo! Wrapper project.

    From the project description:
    Moo! Wrapper brings together BOINC volunteer computing network resources and the Distributed.net projects. It allows BOINC Client to participate in the RC5-72 challenge.

    Rc5

    I updated the Nvidia driver to my GPU and she is now able to crunch the RC5-72 Moo Wrapper Work units. So do they have individual stats for this project or is it Team Only benefits, just wondering? Hi Brucifier, Long time no see !

    @Vaughan. Yes that's it.
    The BOINC part is just the wrapper.
    Accounts are matched on email address.
    The client app is the same client that is available on the Distributed.net Downloads site.

    @Nflight, same BOINC stuff as usual, so I anticipate you mean the 'classic' part:
    individual stats
    http://stats.distributed.net/team/tm...d=8&team=28697
    and team stats
    http://stats.distributed.net/team/tm...d=8&team=28697

    The 'classic' project is "Dnet RC5-72" in Ototero's stats http://stats.amdusers.com/amd_users_position.html
