    I hope no one takes offense at my comment, as I don't intend to cast aspersions on religious belief in an inappropriate venue...

    I think my T60 laptop supports a C2D Merom CPU (it has a Core Duo Yonah in it right now). I just picked up a T7200 2.0 GHz Merom from a scrapped laptop today... gonna see if it works in there or not Not sure how much of a difference there would be, but hey every little bit helps right?

    We need to get more machines crunching if we want to get to 13 or even 14 million. As I mentioned earlier, get your friends to crunch for at least a week. I know some of you have already done that and we appreciate your efforts. Every machine counts.

    13 or 14? You're not trying lull BBT into a false sense of security are you?

    On a positive note, 42.56% of our team members returned work today (Wednesday). 655 people generated 12.67 million points. That's more than 19,000 points per person. That's fantastic. Maybe tomorrow we can get 45% of members returning results and 50% by Saturday.

    To be honest, I would be quite happy with 14 million if we can get more XS members to participate. This goes well beyond the challenge to your team. Now is the time to stand up and be counted.

    No offense, but to me, the challenge to BBT is just a side-show. The real purpose of May 1-8 is to show the power of our team. It's to show how a relatively small group of enthusiasts can take on the big corporate and university teams and not only beat them, but beat them badly. It's also to show how, when ordinary people band together, they can achieve great things.
