Maybe we could raise a collection...

or you could put together an AMD node for less money and have significantly more output?

the cool thing about the via cluster is how much power it saves... but for the crappy output, you would spend the money you save on power in hardware, so whats the point?
 
Or you could spend twice the money, put together an AMD machine and get that and have some races. F@H drag racing, bets and everything. Fastest machine to complete a WU wins.
 
or we could all build quad opteron servers and just let them fold ..... nevermind

I like your thinking ;)

The issue is not building, that is relatively inexpensive. For many of us it’s the electric bill. It’s that monthly recurring bill that hurts so very much :eek:

I'll take one for the team and host said machine. Just send me the parts, and I'll take care of the electric bill. ;)
 
how about you all send me your computers and farms and whatnot and ill just set em up in my room, wouldnt make a $ difference for me.. unless of course i overload the curcuit or whatever and blow up my dorm ;)

With all the systems, I'm sure you'd no sooner power the computers then the fuse would melt. Could bypass it and have a bonfire. :D
 
The electric bill could easily get you thrown out of school. Get an education, become a millionaire, remember the team, and set up a few servers in you're mansion. Then you can hook us poor folks up with some quad Opteron boards with chips, and RAM . :D
 
just in case anyone here decides to become a millionaire, i'm reminding everyone that i need hardware (just in general) and i'll put it to good use, too.

or maybe i should just become a millionaire so i wouldn't have to depend on you drunken lot (i mean that in the nicest way possible, of course... i just wouldn't get between any of you and your drink of choice) to get hardware;)

and way OT: all the machines at my b0rged school got rebooted so i'm down a few (i think 7) cpus due to that and my brother's machine going down. and mine, but mine was more temporary. (i got to the spare 13gig HD first after both our 120gig drives started dying (we think) so my machine is back up folding + gaming, his is now netbooting off of our lil netboo server:p)

and now, the magical /way OT which will hopefully prevent moosed entry into this thread!
