I just broke 7000 points today and ain't slowin' down. Though my 4ghz farm is only crunching 14 hrs/day, I'm reelin' you guys in like 3" sunfish from a local stream.

Zimmerman!
I better then get up running. I have some old computers (200-300 MHz each) either collecting dust or runnning SETI. I better get them uppgraded so that I can run DF on them. To bad that my wife does not allow me to run any DC on her 2.8 GHz computer, but rest assured I will increase my pace anyhow with what ever meager resourses I can muster

Hot diggity. Thats what this team needed: a little competition! Nice jump there Drboar. Looks like you've held me off pretty well but just you wait! Your power hasn't passed mine yet! Muaha!

Oh, and you can make that a 4.1ghz farm, soon to be 4.2 ghz. (overclocking).

I'm still trying to catch you Zimmerman... Every time I seem to get closer, you seem to accelerate out of reach!

I won't give up though!

If only I could get F@H running on my Athlon Boxes... Hmmm, I feel a project coming on!

Lol. You're gaining pretty quick. I put you past me by the end of the week, actually. Then I'll be gone all the rest of summer so my machines will be crunching 24/7 and there's no way you'll touch this. I intend to pass jpcool by the end of the month easy though.

Lol, looks like I'm going to have stockpile some machines for the forthcoming onslaught!

This could get to be an interesting race...!

Nice improvement to 3.3ghz DrBoar. My main rig has been encoding video all day else I'd show more power. None the less, don't get comfortable! You're still not above 4.2ghz yet!

I have had problem installing OS X on that 7500/200 so it is yet not running F@H.
However, I have added:
1. An other 7500/200 @24/7
2. AMD K6/233 @24/7
3. 7500/G3-350 @24/7
4. A P4 2.8 GHz at work allmost on 24/7
This combined with 3.7 GHz G4 I had before should be 7.3 GHz if not the slowest ones get time outs Now if I just can get my hands on some more CPU power at work

I think I just added (finally!) my Athlon 2800+ box in to the arena... I'm giving myself 24 hours to see if I can keep it from crashing every 2 minutes!

So you got past me!
I was counting on the 2 G4s and a P4 to run 24/7 for 10 days during my vaccation but a power outage killed that and as icing on the cake a hub locked out my computers at home.

I am back on track, so watch your back

D'oh! It seems one of my rigs is down. I'm only crunching with one and won't be back home for two more weeks. Enjoy the advantage, Dr. Boar; you'll need it! *menacing glare, Kill Billesque attack posture*
