@ jonnieb-uk: That is a beautiful set of Ruby's you've got there

Le carte GPU est arrivé. Santa was late but worth the wait. Now got 10 pages of In progress or PV. Only downside, Solitaire and Bejewelled now very slow. Welcome aboard Fosking.

Congratulations to the following UK team members on achieving a personal milestone in yesterday's crunching:

MissMelisande 200,000 Points

My activity monitoring reports that the UK team crunched 0:157:07:33:26 in the morning session well above the 141 day average! Let's hope that the afternoon session is equally productive!

[edit] Seems some high-end users experienced validator issues spanning the midnight update. However since the team's RT stats yesterday were similar to last Saturday if there is/was a validator problem it's only a matter of timing. Crunching is still up no matter when the results are validated.

We've managed to last another day without TeAm AnandTech passing us in the Points rankings but it can only be a matter of hours now!
