    Can we say congratulations to DPC for taking the XS RAC crown? It has been a great defence by XS and there isn't much in it (and it has taken half of April for them to do it).

    When the Stampede finishes, XS should overtake them like a rocket. But in the meantime, let's be gracious and say "well done" to DPC for their big effort. And it wasn't as easy as you thought, moo-cows.

    Very gracious indeed

    You didn't quite get trampeled, but hey, we still got 2 weeks
    I'm counting on at least a 1 million point gap at the end of April, and i am also counting on new members to stay on the project after the Stampede.

    But that will make little difference i think, you will get us eventually..

    But till that fat lady sings, happy hunting

    People sometimes forget what is involved to make these huge numbers.
    Add in the times of stuck work units and other issues and you get an appreciation of what guys like DDTUNG and LBM are doing.
    Most of the rest of us have machines at home or work that we have easy access to but not in their cases.
    A hell of a lot of work..Just something to think on..
    Crunch with us, the XS WCG team
    The XS WCG team needs your support.
    A good project with good goals.
    Come join us,get that warm fuzzy feeling that you've done something good for mankind.

    Absolutely.. and the Past few days of tweaking the computer for Rosetta have made me very very glad that I don't have to deal with hundreds of machines like this.

    The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.

    Big numbers are indeed a lot of work... but they get the ladies.

    I spent 3 hours today aborting stuck WU's.
