New thread for this week.

Congrats to all new members who joined this week!

We've made excellent progress so far and have smoked the DUmmies and Kossacks. Let's keep folding!

Which client did you download, the console client, or the GUI client?

Are you Windows XP, 2000, or 98?

[dfwddr]

....you'll be obsolete that much quicker

Are you talking about me, or my computer ???

yes... depends on which one is the hardest to wake up in the morning.

Do you have a little red "o" looking thing down in your system tray (near the time - Lower right hand corner?)

[dfwddr]

ummmm... 'puters run all night, guess that answers my question.

We do seem to stop moving approximately every hour for about an hour. Funny how that works. ;-)

[mombrown1]

YES! I also went to my programs to see if it was loaded. When I clicked on the program it told me it was already running. AHa Do like the challenge and competition.

Thanks

OOPS, looks like we wrapped to a new page.

Yes, but "Shopping" is such a rejuevenating experience.. especially when it's for the tech toys...

Just make sure that you right click on that icon in your system tray, select "configure", and make sure that your user name and team #36120 is entered in, to give proper credit, where credit is due.

if you double click on the icon, a screen will pop up, showing you your progress, what protein you're working on, and the current progress.

I've been stuck on Newegg for a couple years. Do you know any better places to suggest? I'm an AMD kind of guy.

Yeah, but when we move, it's about like this...

[Klutz Dohanger]

... but Honey, I saved us $150, because that new 420gb SATA drive was ON SALE...don't you LIKE saving money?"

.. and look, I got this darling little 256mb Thumb drive, for only $29.99, after rebate. I saved us another $11.00 there....

... don't you think that this black mouse "clashes" with our drapes? There is this gorgeous "teal colored" ergonomic vertical mouse, with built in trackball, and wireless infared, for only $89.99.....It also glows in the dark, so It'll double as a nightlight, and save us money on bulbs..

Yes ladies, we men have learned the "game" also... :)

Mwave? Shop 'em all 'cause you never know who will have a super bargain. I surf the Hot Deals forum at Anandtech like a hawk. anandtech

I clicked on the Advanced Tab and lowered the processor max to 90%. Still pinged it at 100%.

I put it on pause and it still seems to be doing it's thing and eating up cycles but the display says it's paused. Hmmmm.

[dfwddr]

..... but honey, if my computer is faster, I'll have more time to spend with you ......

[dfwddr]

Thanks !!! I'll check it out.
