We have about a dozen PS3s folding for our team. Just keep it folding 24/7 and you will be fine. One anomaly we see is that folks who keep in on all weekend, but shut it off during the week, is that PS3 work units may not get completed in the 5 days alloted to them. Also, make sure that your name is entered correctly.

I have had to check a lot of my systems over the holidays. Found a couple that just couldn’t upload results. A reboot seemed to solve both problems.

If you have a new computer that is dual core, set up the console version to fold 2 work units, one in each core. Lotsa points that way. SMP work units are even better.

Thanks. It turns out that the points showed up over night - just a bit of lag.

Boy, the PS3 system REALLY cranks 'em out. Three 300+ WUs in 24 hours...

I should be bringing up a quad core shortly, but I had a fun idea. Maybe I should encourage our competition towards more charity.

Should I fold under the name ClintonIsARapist for DU until I’m in their top 10 (about 3 or weeks)? I would think that they would make a concerted effort to bump me lower just to keep that name off the top of their list.

Just wanted a little feedback :)
