    Today I switched my UD team to Tom's Hardware Guide... It sure is lame I had to leave my 733 results at my old team, especially considering it was just me and another guy on the team and he doesn't even do it any more! Oh well... starting from the bottom. Watch out guys!!! By the way, my handle...

    CPU sharing under W2K/XP?

    Anyone have any clue about this, what i am after is similar to an CPU farm that you can get in UNIX/Linux, but for W2K/XP. I want to use the CPU off another machine or several, but only its CPU. This way we can distribute an big job that needs CPU power on several machines, but due to the...

    Bargain MP

    OK Gang, how do you spell SMP? I found my friendly local computer store had a close-out on Tyan Tiger MP boards, and I just happened to have a couple of XP1700+ matched chips. I couldn't resist and now have my first MP machine! The only thing that bummed me was I had to go buy some registered...

    Hey! I'm still standing!

    Ever been chased by a madman? I may not be able to stay in front of my friend Killian2 forever, but my plan is to stay in front just long enough to overtake Steelrainn so I can stay in seventh place on the team! (Bwaaahhhaaaaa....) So give me your best shot Killian! 'Cause I'm sure giving you...

    "clawing" my way to the top?

    I've noticed that people talk about seti work units being small enough to fit inside the cache of a processor. Will the clawhammer provide a big boost since it is a 64 bit processor? I don't really understand it all that well, but if seti is mostly doing floating point math, doesn't 64 bits...

    new Seti Spy is out

    Just got the new version of SetiSpy (v.3.2.0) and was wondering if anyone else is getting the same error msg as me when trying to update the user and team stats? No route to host. (Error# 10065) Is this actually an error or do I just need to wait and return a few more WU before it irons itself...

    SETI Stats Page

    You may or may not know, but I used to host a stats page for Tom's SETI team. I am working on merging the old script I had (since it was given to me, and I didn't understand how to put new data in) with a script I found on the internet. It should then automatically download the new stats info...
