    OK All you Xs lurkers..C'mon in and grab a seat!

    "Don't put off till tomorrow what you can do today."

    So take the time, register, then come and help us on our quest to stomp out disease.Sound a little corny? Maybe, but my dream is that when your kids and mine are adults and some Doctor tells them that they have one of these vicious diseases he then smiles and says "We have the cures" from work that you and I do today, next month, next year and the next decade if necessary.
    Your never going to be Brad Pitt or have the money of Bill Gates but here you can do your part and in my eyes be more important than either of those guys!

    Well i΄ve been chrunching for almost a year with my powerhog of an p4 prescott. But time to turn it΄s working hours and make space for my brand new dualcore lappy (2ghz core2duo t7300, with 2048 mb of ram), constantly running at minimum 50% in normal use (not so resource hungry games and webbrowsing ect.) and full load with screensaver running. Works like a charm, is more silent and isn΄t pumping out a dang amount of heat
