Congrats to all you folks for making this happen!

**SiGfever** · 07-16-2010 07:21 PM

It just goes to show that "Heart" matters more than size. Congratulations guys, great work.

Absoloutly Fantastic guys! Thats 1 milestone to never forget. I was looking today at XS output since we joined the Project after leaving mr.Baker and it was really interesting to look at the output from everyone and as a team. When we came here we were Still Running S754 and Pentium D's as really good gear, then We moved into S939 and S940 Opti rigs and Xeon 2400 serries was it? and the points really started to roll in.......... Then Conroe came along and changed everything, looking at the Output at that time it was amazing to see the boost.

Looking back on it all it's really cool to think what kind of work we all did with those old papper weights. Look what the average user is putting out now, it's crazy and the Grid projects are really benefiting from you all now more than ever. I guess what I'm saying is you all do such a great job at keeping your rigs up to date and tearing through the research.

And for everyone else with older gear (myself included) you just kept plugging away and that's what got us here if I may say so.

Awsome work!

Just think how many points current hardware would crank out in D2OL lol

Here's to the next billion

What was the RAC of the average user four years ago?

Good job, team!

Second one in no time!

**lkiller123** · 07-17-2010 09:15 AM

Big stone!

I am glad to be crunching with this team, I will definitely be helping through the next one.

**Olivon** · 07-18-2010 01:47 AM

Huge stones !!!

Congratz everyone

**=[PULSAR]=** · 07-18-2010 01:51 AM

Whens the calculated date that we hit 1 trillion

**[XC] Oj101** · 07-18-2010 02:16 AM

That's why I asked for the PPD four years ago, if we can see the ratio from then to now we can predict the estimated date for 1,000,000,000,000

**1200W** · 07-18-2010 04:49 AM

Fking Aaaaaaaaawsome

. You are awsome XS WCG Team

**Kryja** · 07-18-2010 06:08 AM

Congratz everyone! Here's to the next billion

Four years ago, the entire team was averaging only 1,500-2,500 WCG points/day.

If I remember correctly the team was started early in 2006.
Most of us went to WCG at the end of August 2006.
My "Monster" dual 3600 xeon did all of 7500 WCG points a day or just over a 1000 BOINC points..

Those were the days when the AMD X2's and Opty's were king.

All I can say is "wow." To have imagined we would be at this point back then would have been unbelievable. Good job team!

**illidan** · 07-18-2010 01:43 PM
