Dave, it may be that you are playing too many games on your Pc
---------------------------------------- I am seriously considering joining your team. I'll wait a little until your web site is up and running. So far I think your will be the first team with a dedicated web site. However I hope it will not be just on WCG. It would be a waste. Also you will have to accept Canuks.  |

This is my first forum post unlike dave so be nice :0)
----------------------------------------Ok hit the 92hrs mark @ 99% The workstation in question is my Athlon64 3500+ (939) nForce 3 Ultra: - Screenshot of the current work unit - Full Detailed System Specification - Few Photos and Benchmarks of the beast Now this puppy has been running pretty much day and night as I've been away in oxford for the last few days so unless the kittens have been playing doom on it then its pretty much been 99% on a clean installation of Windows XP SP2. You may have also noticed that the team website has been launched tonight too! Join the online team today :0) Best Regards, Jonathon |

I see that with 120 post you don't have time for much else. You have to be retired to invest all that time in this.
---------------------------------------- I will surely join your group soon. Just waiting to see how your site develops. I rather wait and stay with the team then rush in and have to switch soon after. I would hate to do that.  |

Jonathon,
I am amazed by all your computers. The only person I know locally with something comparable was keeping his old house as a workshop for a few years and let it fill up before he finally sold it. Lawrence |

I think my last WU completed after 80 hours. I'm waiting for it to update my stats to see how many points that will add.
Athlon 1.4GHz. |

 Another demon unit coming through :0) Feel your pain Filbert seems that once you start processing big WU then you have no choice but to keep on super sizing your meal. I've left my beast running again and its cooking about 1hr per percent! Could be another record breaker! But saying that I gave up on my poor laptop after 40hrs at 20% because it sounded like it was gonna take off! I'm sure there are bigger WU out there! The truth is out there! Even if its us lot that are crunching it :0) |

While not as beefy as your PC or as killer a WU, my PC just finished the biggest WU it has been assigned so far:
96 hours of computation on an Athlon XP 2000+ worth 2917 points. |
