I'm ending this thread and leaving this thread on a note: I wish to stay here folding on this team, but some things have arised that I myself must step away and close my visit here. I always knew that being here was only a temp stay, I had items on my plate during the years I've been here...

Check the original first post for updates, its the last one.

If anyone wants to leave comments on this mod the best bet now is to look to Digg.com in the upcoming stories on the second page. There you will find my mod and once you click on the link it will direct you to my new site for comments. Tuesday will be the last day that this thread with the mod...

I have been working on my site to get the bugs out of it, got what I had posted here successfully, and the ancestor that was before this mod. So anymore questions for me, please send it to the PM system here.

Sorry about not an update, but the day has come that I am moving this worklog to my personal forum. An threat upon me and my status in this forum has left me no choice but to move elsewhere. If you want to come, this might very well jeopardy your own accounts here, but if you are willing to...

I'm using a combo of windows 2000 and XP, I was implying that if I was at anytime to upgrade if ever. I was asking a question to you to find me and operating system that won't cost what windows cost now, something cheap, maybe free that a person who don't know shit about windows or linux to use.

Darnit, What the hell is C2D, I don't even know what it is. I have the desire to learn how to use linux, but teaching me will be like learning how to tie your shoes or riding a bike, like teaching a 7 year old to catch a ball. What is VMWare? How about you talking in terms where as I could...

I have an 2x 500mhz p2 Proliant 1600 chugging along, a 1.7ghz 64bit Sempron, quad 500mhz xeon p3 proliant 5500, a quad 700mhz Xeon P3 Gateway ALR 8400. Shipping them and Ebay is not an option.

You know what is so great of you saying that, you have money to spend on that. What is my budget $20.00 that is all I have, now tell me how can I afford to build a computer for that much? Linux is great for people who know how to use it, I'm stupid when it comes to an operating system I have...

This pretty much like how safe is your data if you don't backup it. So say F@h does get shut down suddenly, and what no other project we are on, well what do we do? Say we fall back on that second project, but we then realize there is nothing to be a backup plan. Then we are prettly much...

Mr. Kyle Bennett: I want to know a few things after that you may do what you want to this post. Does people's opinions mean anything on this forum Does the First Amendment apply in a public forum like this Will you consider ideas if they are presented to you, like for example what I...

While I would like to run another program, I won't, I perfer to see a spreadsheet with something solid than running a program. Like someone said about it's just there are newer/more efficent machines but that's always the case in the IT field. Please explain it to a person who hasn't been...

A new council needs to be formed with a few old council members onboard. I believe that would be the best way to go, and have a person cycled in and out every so often to get a feel of what a council does. Something like having an honorary person for a week for helping out new people, and...

This post has been removed as it is off topic. Please post in a new thread. - Kyle

I have a subteam, just ask me in the PM System, but otherwise consider it my last post.

I don't know what happened, but to demod AtomicMoose is flat out stupid. He helps other new people when they have issues with starting to fold as so the rest of us. How often does KingN come in here and offer assistance to new folding people, not to often if any. So he codes the HF database, is...

You just be unlucky to use APC, because I have been using a lowerend ups for 10 years and counting. Quality control used to be great at APC, but like other companies they have slacked over the years.

It's not the problem about folding on older computers, but the sheer fact, that several of the members on the team don't want you to be folding on older hardware. In fact it must have came down to a vote at which alot of us didn't attend, that if you folded on older hardware, you should donate...

I have been discouraged lately of seeing threads from people who post this, that weather or not I should continue to fold for this team: I think the best thing to do would be for all you people with old computers go out to your community and donate them to families that are less fortunate, and...

Even at this price some of you will still buy an overly expensive keyboard.

In any aspect World Community Grid should be the one to replace UD, since it has the look and feel of a new United Devices project. No person should be forced to go to one project for distributed computing, that is asking for trouble no matter where you go with it.

With the lid in the up position, why does it look like an old Commodore system?

So when did the string of Grammer Nazi's come in here. I would never wish upon anyone for loosing their jobs regardless of how bad the company is. Companies will continue to layoff people, bitch about needing help, putting signs that ask for help, and what do they do? They brush off the...

The reasons of why most not so computer knowledgeable people don't back up their systems is: 1. They don't know how 2. To buy an another hard drive or an external drive is: $$$$ w/o it you can't buy it. 3. They are too lazy to backup.

Then why haven't the RIAA gone after the people that have translated the Rosetta Stone.

That upon itself can be classified as age decrimination. It does suck that when the upper management can get pay raises, bonuses and the bottom of the stack gets the ax.

And there was that other thread to get you to 100 also, but so few of us wanted to push crappers toward your way, the cpu count never developed.

So they will give it the nickname iDrop.

Thanks for the kind words CrazyBillyBob, but however my project is far from the regular astromech droids of Starwars, It ain't even a R5 droid. But I have gotten through with the surge protector power system, I have still to get a modular atx powersupply at the bottom. I'll let the pictures...

I didn't go toward the part of the retractable cord, I did think about it, but that was all. I felt an urge to go to the bank for a withdrawl of some cash on wednesday for the Nema plug and socket. But in the process of doing so, the Atm ate my card, so I had to order a new atm card and had to...

Is the World Community Grid just about the same as UD, I'm getting the indication that it is the new UD. Someone enlighten about this project.

Since you had to bring your biased answer up, I'll tell you why. My life doesn't revolve around F@h, does F@H tell me what to do with my life, no it does not. It may in your case revolve around you. I have gave up with competing on this team, why for the fact that it requires 2 of the...

While I could agree with that statement, some of us are broke and cannot afford another more computers. I'm not rich, therefore, I'm saving every bit I can for other things besides computers, like for example a wedding ring, and then computer parts. At my own progress, the [H]Ark will be up...

I would say that 500mhz should be the lowest you can fold with. I say that because there is still many of us that haven't upgraded some of our farms to newer and faster processors. I have 2 machines running the borderline of 500mhz on Pentium 2's and pentium 3 xeons. The electricity bill...

Gosh I don't know what to say, I'm sorta of flabbergasted of finding out that UD was shutting down. Hmm, now maybe we can now see some boost from our Moose, since all his boxen was toward UD.

As lame as that is Marty9876, I find it kinda funny.

Still overly expensive, I'll wait till the prices go down further. I don't know how you guys can afford it, some of us try to save up from paycheck to paycheck.

Ok here is a question: Your at a Lan Party with this case mod, monitor, mouse and keyboard. We all know that you will have to plug the monitor somewhere, but where. Do you: A. Plug your monitor into the already overcrowded surge protectors at the Lan. B. Use your own supplied surge...

And the sucky part about having to get a plug and socket, well It will be at least a month till the next update. I have to save up money for the plug and socket for this mod. Ya sorry, I'm broke from building up and maintaining computers over the years. So this may seem alittle money for...

While I do enjoy you telling me the tale of high Voltage, but talking about high voltage, I may have seemed to forgot, that my father does know alot about high voltage and has been working on it since you have been a child. Providing he was a supervisor for Salt River Project in Arizona and...
