The only time I've ever got this off is when my laptop's either on battery power, or off entirely. I don't run it on my PS3 unless I'm at home,. I don't have it connected to the Net at university so it's pointless doing WUs that I can't upload while running up an electricity bill.

Either way, I should be still within the team top 60, right? I powered through Christmas when i was at home, running up 7 WUs on the PS3 alone :<

Prophet of Mephisto set me up on this, so I think I'm on OCR FAH, maybe...

I still don't really get what this program is/does and how it works. What kind of scientific findings has it found?

Kind of letmegooglethatforyou, but how it works and what it's helping to research (in this case, protein folding): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding@home

As far as what benefit it's provided to the scientific community, if you're willing to read those: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding@home#Results

meteo is another example of how i'm #21 on the team still, even though i don't fold on my own system and haven't for months.

everyone i build a system for gets this on their computer, and they fold for me until they change the info. my little bonus =)

Sorry i kinda died there. I upgraded my graphics card to a ATI 4870 and my performance has been cut in half from my 8800 GT. its a significant improvement for gaming though. I'll be folding while i'm away though since its kinda loud.

I just installed the new SMP client on my dualcore computer. the new client is 100 times easier to install and run. i would use the new GPU client but it's only for Nvidia cards and the ATI version is TBA.

Not using the smp client anymore since I upgraded to an Nvidia 460 GT since i was having massive problems with my previous card. I really haven't been running the gpu since it makes a screeching noise. i'm waiting on getting the 6 core 3.2 AMD cpu tomorrow.

oh yeah, BUMP
