you folders just plain give me the creeps....

kinda like the manson family....

[Jimmypoo]

Uh oh.... you have just upset both of our families.

(I think that means about 150 total ACTIVE insults!)

Hey buddy.... it's a good thing we're busy FOLDING!

It's great to have the number of users and support we do... I know team 38910 has a couple 'super users' with hundreds of CPUs each - but hey - 48057 in only 3 months has attained nearly half as many contributors as 38910 did in x years.

And momentum is picking up. Two of our best folding days ever... one nearly 7K, and another today already over 6K in points... prior best was just under 6K. Every week 48057 grows and with your help will show what a true resource the MacResource team is!

Join the official MacResource Folding Team - fun for a great cause! And thanks all who have supported the team and continue to do so - you've carried us in record time from last to within the top 1000 teams - out of over 48,000 - and in just 3 short months!

Good stuff to come - Join 48057 and get in on the ground floor where you can really make a difference. 1 computer matters to team 48057, don't have to bring a fleet with you... granted, wouldn't turn that away either.

And also - no matter what - for whatever team - do fold regardless, it might very well help you or a loved one - one day.

I got two 2+ GHz P4s back in the Dee_Lux stable. Figured out the magic setting was to let it use IE settings in the configuration. Now it can see through the firewall and I am back to "Set & Forget"

Big night last night for 48057 - busted over 8000 points for the first time ever - hoping we can keep the points rolling.

And maybe I slightly exagerated on 38910 cpus. But maybe not?

Team 48057 - 80+ total users & 135 active CPUs. Average is less than 2 CPUs per contributor.

Team 38910 shows 77 active users and a total of 544 CPUs active in the last 50 days. Just over 7 active CPUs per user average.

heck - their number one user really has the CPUS... and they can't all be half bad... with daily average contribuion of over 4500 points - that one user was contributing more than the entire MacResource 48057 team's daily average. Actually, with 48057 daily at just under 5000 points/day with 135 active CPUs - that one user still nearly equal to our entire 135 active CPU team.

But that's ok - another couple users and 38910 will be on th e overtake list.

It's fun to be competitive for a good cause. At the end of the day - it's the cause that matters.

[OWC Larry]

there is no way those are G3s - not when the 50-70 active (7Day / 50 day) for CB had been out generating 48057 by himself with the 120+ active we had.

must be a number of PCs where the code apparently is better written and processing units faster.

there is something else that could turn the tide - if Stanford actually released a well written PPC folding core.

That would surely let all the Mac based teams, 38910 included too, really kick it up a notch.

Several are G4s...several are G5s (probably half are Macs). 1 dualie G4 Xserve...1 G5 Xserve pushin' weight too.

The other half are at least P4s...2.8Ghz to 3.4Ghz...as well as a few laptops (one 1Ghz G4...and 3 Centrinos at 2.13Ghz+...and 1 PIII-1.2Ghz laptop).

Big key is RAM on the machines. Working with at least 1GB on most CPUs...some up to 4GB.

I should really break down all the stats sometime. Adding more boxes when time allows.
