    Yeah, but mainly Cancer and Proteome (sp?). I chose those two. But since the Proteome one isn't, at this time, sending out WU's, and not all my machines have enough RAM for the Cancer WUs, then I also get some FAAH's ( I have "send me anything, keep me busy' checked ).

    Heres a cut and paste from wcg's requirements page for the various projects. Cancer takes quite alot I think you may want to check out the other projects for the lower memory machines, cancer really lays it to your mrm i'm not kidding. (this is for windows)


    What are the recommended minimum system specifications for a Windows system?
    Each research project we run on the World Community Grid has different minimum machines requirements.

    For the Help Defeat Cancer project, the minimum requirements are:

    At least 750 MB RAM (virtual memory should also be enabled)
    2000 MB Hard Disk Drive with at least 500 MB available for use
    The ability to display 8-bit graphics at 800x600 resolution
    An Internet connection with minimum 40 kbps speed
    Operating System: Windows 98, ME, 2000 or XP

    For FightAIDS@Home, the minimum requirements are:

    At least a 550MHz Intel Pentiumâ„¢ processor or equivalent
    At least 250 MB RAM (virtual memory should also be enabled)
    600 MB Hard Disk Drive with at least 50 MB available for use
    The ability to display 8-bit graphics at 800x600 resolution
    An Internet connection with minimum 40 kbps speed

    For the Human Proteome Folding - Phase 2 project, the minimum requirements are:
    At least a 550MHz Intel Pentiumâ„¢ processor or equivalent
    At least 250 MB RAM (virtual memory should also be enabled)
