Time for a new FreeRepublic folding@home thread.
Our FreeRepublic team of 300+ members comprised primarily of Free Republic members in good standing have banded together to donate their excess CPU cycles to a worthy cause. Via distributed computing, millions of computers around the world, contribute directly to scientific research, in the quest for a greater understanding of diseases such as Alzheimer's, Cancer, and Mad Cow (BSE).
Currently, the team is in 164th place (with 992 CPUs - nearly 19,000 completed Work Units and 2,982,241 points)
This is an entirely voluntary program, and if you want to learn more, please see the links posted below (or read one of the previous 8 folding threads)
I'm wondering what happened to InfraRed also? Dude, whatup?
Top 20 producer bump! That Chris Primavera is a sneaky one to keep up with, LOL!
One more WU and I will pass the 10K milestone - this is entirely too addictive :-)
The dude has 8 cpu's crunchin' big time.

Sunspots! run!
All teams, everyone got zero. I say it's sunspots!
yeah, I have got to figure out how to add a few more processors.
Ha! You are going to smoke a bunch of us over the next few days as you are - more processors is always good tho.
Thanks. It now takes more than 10,000 to get into our top 50. I should be there in the next day or two. Unless, I add more processors, it looks like I will level out in the 20 to 30s range. I would love to be in our top 10, but with my current processing, it won't happen.
Andyk is on the big board bump!
With over a thousand cpu's, I sure wouldn't think so.
MathyKathy has been climbing up my 6 for days now. Looks like today, I'm going down. Good work Kathy, whoever you are.
Find.
More.
Machines.
Resistance is futile.

Yeppers - I'm maxed out around the 50 mark ... can hold my own here but here I be.
Don't know what one of these sells for yet - but I want one - maybe 2 if the price is right.

Have a nice ride up - you will overtake me in a few more hours. My next 404 won't complete for another 40 hours.
