What vanity of yours was SM talking about earlier? I looked, but I couldn't find it.

[paulat]

You are very perceptive! I did go to your link before...and I got cold feet because my product

NVIDIA GeForce2 Go (Microsoft Corporation) [Display adapter]

is not listed when you click on the "Products Supported" link on the left side of the page you linked.

There's a ton of products listed...just not mine...and I don't know how to find out what I need.

Question for you. I was checking out fahstats.com (they show how many points I get per unit). Anyway, I did a search on Free, and found that there are 2 Free Republic teams. Do we possibly have some strays? Team#47733.

I started that team before I became aware of the existing FR team.

I can change the name so people realize that we have another FR team that is much higher in the rankings.

Any suggestions for a team name?

Alrighty, I retired SETI and put 3 more boxes online for y'all - got a 40-pointer coming up in a couple of hours, and 400 more in a couple of days :)

Download it and try it anyway. If it doesn't recognize a qualifying product it'll complain during the install and tell you to cancel. Don't sweat it. You're not going to break anything permanently. If it works, you're set, if it doesn't it won't break your current driver.

For now I changed it to " CHANGE YOUR TEAM # - Team FreeRepublic is # 36120"

check out that cool team logo :)

I had done SETI for years, and reached over 20000 (along with the help of some idle computers at a university...).

If I had known that Freepers were doing SETI, I probably would have had them count here. As it was, I let DH post them under Team Navy (I believe it was...)

Folding@Home is a very worthy cause.

Download the software and sign up on the Folding@Home website: http://folding.stanford.edu

FreeRepublic's team number is 36120

[Seamoth]

You win. LOL

[apoc]

systematic,

Thanks for the info, I'll check into it.

Alas, since I have moved, I don't have access to those huge sun boxes anymore. I was chunking out about 140 a night with those puppies.

How do you find out how many points your WUs are worth?

[ican'tbelieveit]

Looks like JSL & CementJungle are the only active workers on that name.

The regular stats show us at 1104... have we passed 1100 yet?

I think 1000 is doable before the end of the year...

[ican'tbelieveit]

Some of them are listed here:

[Malsua]

To find out what a WU is worth...look at what it's working on via the gui or console log and look it up here:

[Seamoth]

Dang... what's the battery life?

[systematic]

Looks like JSL & CementJungle are the only active workers on that name.

I know. We're trying to get them over to Team #36120

I don't really know. I watched a dvd on a flight to Germany last year, but that was the longest I've ever used it on batt power. Heck, I bought a 10kw GEN/APU and a 3k watt pure sine wave inverter for my big truck...I don't need no batteries! LOL

The only negative thing I can say about this one is, I wish I had got one with PCI Express! I have an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700/256MB and it does run hot. The GPU has been as high as 68c! But, other than that, a little over a year later, I still love it.

:O)

[Seamoth]

Wow... that is... sexy.

OH, and a wife-a German.

Rats!

[hiredhand]

Ping!
