Yes that it what I meant. An automated front end would be ideal, surely it would save Snurk the time of posting links to each signature. As you said, maybe it's deliberate!

Good morning all

Good morning everyone.

Morning team,

Thanks for the platitudes, my wife is doing well.
As for myself, I have been taking morphine in many forms for over 15 years and I am well used to the side effects, could really not live without it,

Hoping to get my first 5 year badge in MCM followed closely by one in OET.
Should not take too long.

Paul_D As far as I know, Linux without a GUI uses less resources to run e.g. CPU processes. So theoretically it would allow for more CPU processes for WCG, this would only be a small amount in my experience but still if you're trying to get as much performance as possible then definitely something to consider.

There's lots of articles talking about performance of Windows VS Linux e.g. http://tuxradar.com/content/benchmarked-ubuntu-vs-vista-vs-windows-7

I would recommend Ubuntu which is what I use (running on AWS), as it's easy to set up and install programs on. With AWS I can provision a server and run:

#!/bin/bash
apt-get update
apt-get install boinc-client -y
boinccmd --project_attach http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org [ACCOUNT KEY]

The server is then running WCG without me even interacting.

What does everyone else think?
Happy to help with installing Linux if needed. :)
