    There's got to be a mistake here

    I was just following one of my favorite rituals, browsing through BOINCstats
    I found one peculiar statistic though. As you know, you can see detailed stats on your whole account as well as on individual machines.
    I went for the detailed stats for my harper (which said it was in 2000th place within all machines running WCG) but then I clicked on "sort by average credit".

    *gulp*

    Am I totally nuts, is there a mistake in there or do I really run the rig that has the 2nd highest monthly output in the whole of WCG?!
    I know it's fast, but #2 in 437419 hosts? I don't think so..

    Sorry if this thread may seem strange, I think the addiction has already taken over huge parts of my brain, I can't think clearly any more

    Oh and WTH is that #1 thing?! 64 CPUs? *droooooool*

    crazy, that 64 CPU one must be some form of linux cluster. But totally congrats on your being #2!!

    Seeing that #1 machine gives me some hope that I can string together computers in a cluster for BOINC. But dayum, #2 in the world! Grats man.

    I'm almost always available on Steam to chat. Same username.

    Thanks
    Yes, seeing that #1 kinda makes you want to build your home cluster... if only I had the slightest clue about Unix..

    If you want to learn about Linux, Ubuntu is a great place to start. Very powerful, yet very easy to learn.

    Who says I wanted to...
    I absolutely hate software (because it never works hot it's supposed to), plus I have zero time at my hands for doing a project like this. Maybe next life

    Naw, read more closely... it says if I only (already) had a clue how to do this (then I would do it).
    But due to the lack of time and interest in learning Unix, I won't

    Hey guys,

    I just remembered this thread, and guess what...
    My Dual Harpertown still hasn't grown old. #2 out of 594809 hosts now, according to average credit, and certainly the only rig with "only" 8 cores up there
    Current uptime being 6 weeks, 3 days, 19 hours and counting... not so much as a second of wasted CPU cycles

    The Z7S might be wacky when you reboot, but if you don't, amazing are the things it can do.
