Coffee... woot!
Glad to hear you got the Vista somewhat figured out. Also good to know that all you have to do is threaten Vista, and it might start working..
Rain here today, so probably gonna go back to bed for a bit...  |

Just a reminder: we've retired GPU1 today. As of 9:30am pacific time, new assigns for the GPU1 client will go to 0.0.0.0. We will keep the data server up for a few more days to collect old WU's, but we will repurpose that server in about a week (the deadline time on the GPU1 WU's was 6 days).
I'd like to personally thank all the GPU1 folders, whose work has lead to the GPU2 clients, for both ATI and NVIDIA. Just as we turn the page on GPU1, we are nearing our open beta release for the GPU2/NVIDIA client. If all goes well, we hope to have that available in a week. I'll give an update if it looks like it will be delayed more than a week.

No money being had here today either.
Unless I get unlazy and load up XP on this laptop, then I might make a 6 pack.
And from what I've read, the new GPU client (dubbed GPU2) is going to be faster then the PS3 by a good margin. And also I read in a post that steam processors will help greatly. So it sounds like the more SP's, the more folding. |

Im almost there on getting Kubuntu on. I am sure that it is the ide-piix module! KK, if I cant get the Kubuntu to work . . . what should I do to get up on Gentoo? I have always wanted to try Gentoo . . . |

Hmm.. I know they have GUI installers. But Sabayon is a very good way to go.  |

We'll see how that goes.. |
