.........will you please slow down just a little bit, just as I think I'm making ground on you, you manage to speed up again! I was looking at our stats for yesterday and we are crunching within 974 units of each other a day. Any closer and we'd have to get married!

Good race.

Watch out Shaktai, we're coming

Damn, now I sound like one of those confounded SETI mutts

Married! If that happened, that would only bump us up to 3rd and wouldn't benefit the team at all.

I do have a plan to add another 100,000 units per day, but I have to get a few people to agree to participate. Until then it seems I am safe at #4 for now. At least until you find some more ponies or a phantom powerhouse joins. Happy DF'ing...

Cheers!

RIP

I have been looking for my own phantom powerhouse. It is all I can do to keep the two of you off my tail.

Just be glad I didn't hit the lotto.

Ah nuts, I've already overclocked my Athlon 1800XP, my iBook is starting to cry, the G4 733 wants more photoshop work ('cos it's easier) and the poor old P3 is a gibbering wreck in the corner - in the words of Scotty "they canna go any faster" - and you casually chuck in another 100,000 units, rats.

Now I'm gonna have to be really nice to our IT support guy, do you have any idea how humiliating that will be!

Good race tho'

If only a 68k client existed and Airport worked on my ol' 25Mhz Quadra 610, I'd whip that baby out and spank you all...

Ok now that I know that RIP is the famous rkadowns I know that I am going to need to add some higher octane fuel to my crunchers. It was because of the wise words from Mr. Downs that I am even a competitor in this race.
I did take you advice and went out and ordered two 1900+ Athlon XP processors. If this gentleman says he is going to add another 100,000 units a day I believe it.

Looks like I need to get a bigger farm or make some friends.

Watch out Free-DC the big guns are on the way.
Team MacNN is ready to rock and roll!!!

Woohoo!!!!
Tag ur it.

“Will I'll be!”, said Gomer Pile. How about that Phantom Powerhouse I prophesized?


Thanks for joining Kevin! Just don't forget who is on your tail...

RIP you are already by me. I only have one computer running this project (450Mhz G4). I'll be going down a ways from the looks of the stats.

Welcome Kevin, you came in strong, and rattled a few cages. Thanks, it took their sites off of me for a few.

Glad to have you on board.

Pretty impressive numbers from a guy only running one machine.
I don't thing my 450 DP G4 is putting out those kinds of numbers. Duh! No wonder it used up all the memory and crashed. Guess that explains things. :o

Glad to have you helping mixing things up.

Seems to be an aggressive group gathered here.

Looks like the DP 450 machine has become a SP 450 machine. :o
No wonder your numbers looked so good compaired to my machine.
