If anybody thought catching Anandtech was gonna be a quick and easy job, have another think quickly. In the 0600 GMT stats AnandTech have increased their lead over us since I last looked yesterday!!!

Great to see that inspired by our fruity member, the always attnetntive 'Butch the Grapefruit', some of you guys - RyanO, Shabow and the TRB among others - were working hard recruiting and re-recruiting in the gen tech discussion forum yesterday. Jolly good show and all that - watch the pay-offs dropping in during the day!

Welcome Rpertusio!

You made it! Despite the efforts of Butch and the Press Gang to subtly dissuade you.

Am I the only one who's noticed that Bthom70 has gone bonkers and is really blowing up a storm - I reckon if he carries on at that rate he's gonna be the sixth TIMO guy in the FaD Top 100 WORLDWIDE in about two weeks !!! Fantastic !!!

I added 3 more IBM P4 2.8 machines last week.
I'm still "setting them Up" so they are running 24/7 but atleast 1 will only be used 8 hours a day. :-(
I'm trying to prolong the process.

For some strange reason these P4 2.8 only get a rating of 137 or so.. I have other 2.4 that get 147
I've tweaked the power settings and looked for other things that could be sucking resources to no avail.

I cant wait to get into the top 100, world wide..
I'm going to take over the world... hahhahahahahaahahaaha

You're not the only one who has noticed. Huge congrats to Bthom70 for quickly tearing up the charts!

Seems the crew at AnandTech has finally taken notice of our rise in the rankings. Competition is always good, as at least FAD is getting more work performed than usual, and that is the real deal with the project. However, that also means it is time for us to show AnandTech how real distributed computing is done, just as only TechIMO can do.
