A worthy cause to be sure! I was disappointed to read the bruhaha on the last thread, but I'm just glad we're allowed to continue with regular threads advertising the project! I'm thankful for that.
I have added another machine, but it's not nearly as fast. (the one I'm typing on now actually) At this rate, I think we'll have a shot at being in one of the top 50 listed by the end of the year!
For a new name, I liked the "Conservative Folders" proposed on the last thread. Also, perhaps "Folding One for the Gipper". Or maybe "Folding for the Gipper".
Well, apparently I'm the klutz. I downloaded and installed folding@home. When it installed, I took all the defaults, and then put my FReeper name in as my userid, and put the group code in.

Waiting for core: Step 37
