Imagine you have a hamster in a little running wheel. Suppose that wheel has a motor on it. You can make the wheel spin a little faster than the hamster is running, and he will keep up for a little while, but soon he will no be able to and he will go "thump, thum, thum" around the wheel like a tennins shoe in a dryer. The same is true with your processor. Overclock that bad boy, and then you will have to call me, Mr. A+ Cert. to come tell you "Well, you nuked your CPU, buy another one!"

Say the shop you got it from tested your hamster and found it would run at 20mph so, to avoid warrentee returns, they rate it at 10mph. You decide to run your hamster at 16mph and supply some extra water, food, etc., what's the harm? I love my overclocked hamaster. He's running at 20mph with a heatsink straped to his forehead. Going to upgrade to peltier.

I think this is one of the funnest post I have ever read. What's up with the hamsters.
As for overclocking I really don't know how safe it is. I currently have my P3-450 overclocked to 558. I'm kind of learly about doing that because I don't have the money to buy a new one if it dies but I do love the extra speed. I probably drop the speed back to 450 in a couple of days and the awhile later overclock it again.
BTW is it bad to overclock and the drop the speed and then overclock again and so forth?

Or maybee the hampster is barely walking, when you make him walk faster, or run, he starts to grow muscles, kind of like burning in! Or maybee, when you supercool your system, the hampster freezes kryogenicly to the whell and never dies, no matter how fast you push the CPU, er.. motor...

Recently, I made some modifications to my hampster to tweak a little more speed out of him, and you are all gonna be jealous!!
First, I removed his tail an shaved him completely bald. And trust me, shaving your hampster should be left to those with very good eyesight and a steady hand.
Removing the tail made him .0005 oz. lighter and more efficient. It also made insertion of Scotter's rectal thermal probe much less time consuming. Shaving him also resulted in a weight savings, though it was originally designed as a means to assist in heat removal.
Not for the squeemish:
Next, I took my hampster to an orthopedic surgeon, and I had leg extension surgery performed. Yep, thats right, they broke his little limbs, and then put these devices on him which seperated the bones and held them that way so that when the bones grew back together, his legs were a full 2 milimeters longer. After growing back, not only were the legs longer and stronger, but his over all stride distance had increased 200%.
So, after jumping through all these hoops, what were the results you ask?
My hampster now performs at an unblievable level. Wheel RPM readings are off the chart and the motor is no longer fast enough to keep up with him! Food/water consumption is down, and his temperature at the faster wheel spin is virually identical to what it was before the modifications began! As winter approaches, temperature may decrease even further!!!!!!!!!!!
Experiments with whisker removal and pinning his ears back to reduce drag and wind resistence proved futile. Turns out that running in place on a wheel is not effected by wind resistence as it is in the wild. It does look really cool though, so you may still want to consider it.
Future plans:
-Work with Nike to have him fitted for running shoes.
-Place Pet-house centerfold on outside of glass cage so that when hampster faces forward, it is in his direct line of sight.
-Electrify the wheel!

Back when slow hamsters were $845 and the local pet shop was making a killing on each one, it was unwise to test the limits of your pet's endurance, but since a fast hamster can be purchased from $49 to $99 (the price a mowing a few lawns) it is no big deal if one of the little buggers has a "chest-grabber."

After reading all this i thought i'd try it. I took my Hamster 75 from the old cupboard and fired him up again. He was pretty nimble, for a 75. I thought what the hell and shaved his fur, like one of the previous comments. I also took the decision to fit an Escort Cosworth rear spoiler, as this would increase his handling but the coefficient of drag added would be compensated as he had no fur left.
Anyway, he ran fine for several days, and decided to go one further. I took a McDonalds straw(polished inside and out) and attatched one end from his rear, and the other to his front. From feeding him 7 cans of Heinz baked beans a day, i find the gases from the rear, when reinserted to the front of the unit, give the unit a right boost. He now managed to spin the wheel at 4470rpm.
I removed the straw and left him to cool down for a couple of days.
I then reinserted the straw, and plugged the ECU from the said escort cosworth, along with the Green fuel injectors, and plugged him to a tank of 98 octane Super Unleded(couldnt use 95 octane as he was overheating). Imagine my suprise when the wheel span at 6233rpm for 14 minutes! he only used 2 litres of fuel!
Anyway the said project had to be abandoned when the bars on the hamster wheel wore down to .2mm thick, got a little scared the hamster would break through and charge out of the window, never to be seen again. He is currently being patented and will find his way into the British museum of Science and Technology within a year. Ford is also interested in the powerplant for their Focus-Hamster special edition, I will keep you posted on its success....

I can't believe I missed this thread first time round, true comedy!
For those that are interested, I have started work on the Hamster Genome Project.
This is an ambitious program spread between many learned institutions - MIT, Oxford University, Tokyo Uni, Joe's Pet Shop, etc and hopes to have the whole hamster DNA mapped by about 5pm this afternoon.
Using this information (which I will patent, naturally), I will be able to genetically engineer hamsters specifically designed for the overclocking community from my mad scientist castle-cum-laboratory in the Bavarian Alps (yes I DO have those cool switches and arcing electricity)
The basic format will be the PPGA370 Hamster.
We did not make Slot1 Hamsters from the start because our technicians were freaked out by their centipede-like appearance.
Also, by messing around with chromosome 13, we can control the existence of leg B21.
Naturally (well not naturally ), all hamsters are bald, with flat foreheads and clips for the addition of heatsink and fan combos.
In what we feel to be a major breakthrough, we have tripled the density of hamsters in order to prevent their light little bodies being sucked into their own cooling fan. This also used to freak our technicians, but the shock therapy fixed that.
Finally, we are able to modify hamster sweat glands so that they produce thermal grease. This also makes placement of the temperature probe easier.

This giving the guys over at nike a little time to catch up with technology(they have never been knocked off top before, must have came as a shock), by doing this nike was able to get it's new long awated product on the market"CopperHamster", (the hamsters seem to like this name better than the old one"Catmy" I just wish we had a stable hamster cage to run all this in, even without pushing my hamster to it's limits, my cage crashes.

I was going to leave well enough alone, and not post to this again, but since it appears to be the thread that won't die, I decided to provide a follow-up. (re: future plans in previous post)
Talks with Nike to fit my hampster for running shoes did not go as well as I had hoped. Turned out that they evidently have an exclusive partnership with Budweiser to fit only Ferrets at this time. I hate that stupid rodent more than the lizzard does!
Anyway, it wasn't totally bad news though. New Balance heard of my efforts and have agreed to give it a shot. They have taken cast molds of my hampsters little feet, and are working on a prototype now.
Electrifying the wheel was a mixed bag of results. When power was applied to the wheel, the hampster would run really, REALLY fast, but only for short periods of time. Evidently the electrical current would eventually cause the leg muscles to lock up completely and what I ended up with was run-->run-->RUN-->RUN-->THUMP-->THUMP (you get the idea, not good). Of course, fitting for running shoes is going to provide insulation from the wheel anyway, so I will likely abandon further testing with this.
Pasting of the Pet-house center folds on the outside of the cage had absolutely no effect on increasing speed. Puzzled, I took my hampster to a vet thinking that maybe the hair removal project may have accidently removed some other important parts too. Turns out that was not the case, and was never a possibility, as my hampster is female!
This however did lead to an explanation for events that happened later when my hampster would periodically slow down. After weeks of operation without issue, my hampster performace slowly began to deteriorate to the point where I was lucky to get a walk out of it! Finally it quit moving altogether and I figured I had fried it for sure. So I set about trying to find a replacement. Later that same day though, low and behold, my hampster had babies!!!! Two days later, all was well again and my hampster was back to performing as it had before.
My issue now......does anyone know where I can get a quad wheel cage? /forum/smile.gif

my hamster is one of the old k6-II hamsters and with 333 rpm in a slow wheel. i decided to train him for several month in a 350 rpm wheel that he get's a bit more speedy.
well now i stripped him and give with my fan extra air to him to get the old hamster ready for competing with newer hamsters by increasing the wheel up to 380 rpm.
but, well the newer hamsters of this species, which are able to manage 450 rpm are sold for $50, so well i think i will sell my old hamste to a friend for $30 and buy a faster one...
...and push it over the 500 rpm boarder ;-)

I found an excellent food source for everyone's hamsters!!! It's called GoGnomie Pellets, from a company named Linuxchomp. By simply substituting this for the usual feed I give my Gerbil-III (I can't afford the Hamster model yet) I got another 5 mph out of him!!! He's incredibly efficient now--he eats less and performs better!!! And he just runs and runs and runs and never quits. The best part is that the feed is practically free!!!
Also, based on richamies' idea, I inquired at the feed store about an internal combustion-based performance enhancer. I was told that such an item is currently being researched, under the working name "Formula for Advanced Rodent Training", or, F.A.R.T. The formula ingredient ratios are still being finalized, as several experiments have resulted in "overcombustion". Apparently it's been very messy.

Hey Todd Beck.....
I heard a rumor that "Formula for Advanced Rodent Training", or, F.A.R.T. is nothing more than a re-formulated version of Gerbil Advanced Sustenance, or, G.A.S.!
Sounds like it might be true. Performance gains with either seem to be out weighed by the mess you spoke of, increased noise, and the necessity of adding another exhaust fan to the case.
Perhaps a mixed diet of the two is what would make them both successful..... a diet of Gerbil Advanced Sustenance (G.A.S.) followed by the Formula for Advanced Rodent Training (F.A.R.T.) would work out a little better I think....... I'm still betting the extra exhaust fan will be needed though.

I have found rats to be faster than hamsters, and some people are scared that there are so many hamster lovers(freaks) out there. I did almost the same thing as Target but with a rat. Rats are knowns to be faster than hamsters. I did most of the things Target did with the hamster, tail removal and such, but the thing thats different about my rat is its even better. My team got rid of the whole skin and replaced it with clear wrap like bio material. Also removed cheap organs, like sweat gland, extra intestine lengths. Then we got rid of the rat's teeth. All for weight reduction. About the legs, front legs extended to 2.5mm and hind legs to 2.0mm. The toe nails were also removed and replaced with light rubber substance for grip and light weight. First test run thought this sucker was going to die, its heart couldn't handle it. Then we replace the heart with the genetically enginered one. Once we got this rat running we got scared to let the public know, but to prove that things can go faster than they are made to I post this put. And whatever happened to that guy who originally posted this message? I'm still a student and I seem to know more about computers and business than this guy. Well hope you all have fun overclocking... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

CRITICAL UPDATE--
If you are using either F.A.R.T. or G.A.S. to increase your overclocking, I HIGHLY recommend that you place some kind of easily cleaned and/or replaced filter material (cheesecloth or foam pads would work) on the INSIDE of all case fans. Trust me, you don't want to see it after any sh*t hits those fans.

Oh, and I've found that continuously running water over your overclocked hampster allows you to clock that baby even higher. Unfortunately, some shapes and sizes are more difficult to properly run water over than others. Check with CMonster before running water over your hampster.
And in keeping with the spirit of things, if you have ANY interest in gaming, TAKE BACK YOUR RATSx - my Hampster 366 running at 366 will outrun your RAT 550 any and every day of the week.

Got a new cooling system: a water cooled body suit, and a face mask that provides cooled air. The hamster's been shaved of course - better heat transfer. Negotiations with U-96 will commence shortly to obtain one of his patented hamsters that sweats the thermal grease - that would greatly increase the output potential.
The face mask provides cool air, the temperature of which is monitored by an "internal" thermal monitor. The monitor also regulates the flow of water. That way, I can be sure that his body temp never goes too low, or too high; without the thermal monitor, at the speed this one's running at, that water could flash boil and cause an explosion. And I simply won't tolerate a hamster being boiled alive. Again. The thermal monitor had fallen out. So very tragic. But, based on Target's recommendation to someone previously, I figured that the little hamster shouldn't go to waste. Not quite like chicken, not quite beef. More like pork.

Well as a new member here, I must say this post has been eye opening.
I have been running my 300a (athlete) hamster for a year now at a mere 450 revs and he had become quite lazy. I took down some notes from the previous posts and got that sorry *** hamster back to work.
First things first, I had to remove his unruly hair. It was much more difficult than expected. I tried to start out with a strait razor but it kept passing over the without taking much off...after about an hour of that, I decided to use a beard trimmer as that would take off the coarser hair and just leave the fine stubble for the strait razor...to make a long story short, after an hour and a half I had a cleanly shaven hamster that was ready for the next step...cooling.
Since my hamster was from mylasia, he was used to a little heat, so I had never needed more that a small fan to keep him cool. But I knew that if i was going to push him any faster we were going to have to get a little more exotic. After having several thermal sensors surgically implanted (anal temp sensors seemed to restrict the output and would often cause him to shut down for days at a time) I prepped him for what I will now call the T.H.U.D (Transfusion (from) Hamsters Unwilling Donor). The donor hamster was gaged and bound and hooked into the transfusion machine...it was imperative that his activity level was kept to a minimum as he was to regulate the temperature....we wanted to prevent any sweating, so I didn't put a fan on him..just left him room temperature...I hooked the THUD into the 300a set him back on the wheel and and now he is running a cool 504!!
I read about a guy that had got his 300 athlete to 600 but he has a bigger cage and his wheel has 133 spokes as compared to my 100 so I guess I'll have to save up for that next!!!!!

Okay last message was good but this is better! Did you ever think to overclock the bus speed on the mother board?? HE HE I just did, so far three hours and still running!
Here is what I did, the highest setting on the motherboard was 75Mhz (X) Multiplier, the jumper settings were to be (Off, On, On) for this option to work, so I said, hmm what would happen if I took off the jumpers to read (Off, Off, Off) what I found was the bus speed went from 75 Mhz to 100 Mhz, another setting I chose was (On, On, On) and found out that it ran at 83Mhz. Now the pages just blink, and the screen is there ready for input, however, every motherboard is designed differently, To see how I found how to do this, I made a chart to show Factory Settings and New Settings. The test was done on a Cyrix 6x86 M2 MMX factory set for 300 Mhz. Made from Packard Bell.
Just E-mail me for the chart and I will send it to you with details on how to read it.

I'm akabruno's mortician nephew, my condolences to the Hamsters family. Might I suggest a couple of options in this,your time of need.
As you can see on our general price list, a traditional service, the service charges of the funeral home is only $550.00 of couse this does not include, casket for Mr. Hamster, outer burial container or any cash advance items, etc: cemetery plot, minister fees and so on. This does however include. removal of the deceased, casketing of remains, professional services of funeral directors and staff.
If you wish for a lesser expensive funeral, may I suggest, graveside or Cremation of your loved one. Cremation begins at $150.00 and up, depending on the items you choose.
If i can be of any futher assistance, please let me know.
Again my heartfelt condolences to the family of the Hamster.

Yeh but that is the whole point as I am only really getting the use of one hamster in win98 so do you think I could use the siamese hamster dually in win 2k and get the second hamster to pull his weight in games or am I better waiting for Win ME. I heard you can use siamese in linux but it is not really a gaming platform and I have to think of the kids http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif.
Just a thought but has anyone noticed the similarity between Willamor and Williamette...I reckon he is a super hamster tech..either that or he had inside info http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif.

I replaced my old hamster with a newer hamster and kept the old one for safety in case the new one didn't like his wheel.
Unfortunately, I accidently sent the old hamster through the washing machine and then dried him in the dryer. He melted in my pants pocket and got goop all over.

As the hampIII market continues to grow, and hampIII's cross the 1Grpm(Ghz..only with rpms) Hamptel has plans of releasing the budget rodent, the Girbleon. Girblons have shorter leg length and have been nutered, but with proper cooling are still quite overclockable and with leg extentions can give a HampIII a run for it's money at half the cost.

Uh, guys, please be careful with your hampsters.
Bought a new hampster a while ago, and a generic heatsink. I know, I know...but I wasn't planning on running him fast. Well, I heard a loud "thud" and then a blue screen. Turns out that his back wasn't flush with the heatsink, and there was a little patch of burned fir. Poor little guy.
1 month later, saved up my money and bought a new hampster and an Alpha. This time I wasn't gonna let heat burn up my new hampster. I even left the case open with a box fan blowing in. What I didn't count on was him running away. If anyone sees a hampster with an Alpha on his back, please return the little guy.
Well, I bought another hampster recently. And this time I went with some serious cooling. Dual Peltiers on a copper plate (used an ace bandage to hold it on) and chilled watercooling to keep the peltiers cool.
Folks.....Please....for the sake of your hampster, for decency sake...
MAKE SURE YOU DON'T PUT THE WRONG SIDE OF THE PELTIER TOWARD THE HAMPSTER.

A 486 you say? Ha, got ya beat - dusted off an old 386 hamster - poor sluggish thing can only do 33rpm - you can barely tell it's moving. It's basic memory was failing - guess the Basic Intelligence Output Storage(BIOS) had lost power cause the battery died. It was re-educated to it's defaults quickly, and I booted it. It rustled in the wheel a bit, beeped, and the wheel began to slowly whirr. The old critter could still more. In it's head, there's a little 66MHz oscilator crystal. Must replace it with 80MHz - get the hamster's brain going faster, should be able to get 40rpms out of it

To add my 2 cents worth - the neverending topic!!
Due to a new break through in refrigeration cooling my Hampster KVII will hit 1.2G. It was an amazing piece of ingenuity, really quit amazing! The hamster was shaved to provided a better heat exchange, and then placed into a rubber suit, with a water inlet up front, and an outlet near the rear.
Now here is where the tricky part comes to play. We have fried many hamsters due to faulty silicone sealing of the refrigeration unit, causing water to leak out, and electrify our hamster.
To solve the problem, our engineers have patented a molding process for the refrigerations unit through the use of a one piece latex suit that is molded directly to the hamster. Truely amazing. The Scotter probe was abanded due to the need for an exit point, thus we included a small monitor that is inserted just below the skin, and through the use of Monitoring software we have been able to achieve results within .01 C degrees.
Just be careful, that if the temperature dips below 0 C we have experienced problems with the hamster completely locking up, and freezing altogether. But we are working on a better insulating unit that should resolve this problem altogether.
Otherwise we are quite pleased with 1.2G and in late Q3 plan on annoncing the release of our 1.5G Hamstang - with 2 balls of cache running at full speed!!!!!
Jeff7
07-06-2000, 08:54 PM
Now, using advanced engineering techniques, bio-engineers are researching the possibility of changing the blood cells of the hamster in order to survive in a mixture of not only the normal plasma in the blood, but also with a little antifreeze just in case. Why do this? Once this has been accomplished, the heart can be replaced with an external heat-exchanging heart, which could be immersed in liquid carbon dioxide .(liquid nitrogen would be too cold - the hamster's blood would gel up, killing it) This would allow for thorough cooling throughout the entire hamster, avoiding the occasional deaths resulting from internal burns. These technologies would allow for speeds very far beyond the hamster's rated rpms.

Jeff7
07-09-2000, 08:52 PM
If any cat would get near one of these hamsters, the cat'd be killed/injured badly by the high speed legs. Plus, with the blood modifications, sweat glands that secrete heatsink compound, and all the monitoring hardware, the cat would - if it would be able to somehow consume the hamster - become extremely sick.
And someone mentioned ball bearings in the wheel. That brings up a very good point - excess wear on the bearings, akin to the electronic corrosion that can occur on overclocked microprocessors. We are presently looking into a sort of magnetic levitation system to keep the wheel spinning with almost no friction. And, that would greatly reduce the number of moving parts, thus extending the lifetime of the wheel.
This post thread shall live on as long as computers/hamsters can be overclocked. Long live the hamster!

09-07-2000, 01:09 PM
Would it be a good idea (I mean, will he run faster and live longer http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif) to put the hampster in a plastic bag, and keep it under water? :-)
Jeff7
09-07-2000, 06:06 PM
Well, then there is the danger of suffocation, plus, the plastic may act as an insulator, and could actually prevent heat transfer. Maybe if the hamster's cage would have a cooling system, with its heat exchanger in liquid nitrogen, that would keep it nice and frosty. The cage would of course need to be kept dry though - can't have ice crystals forming. If any of them would fall into the wheel, which, spinning so fast, could shoot the sharp crystals through the unfortunate hamster. Ouch.
Hmm, just thought - the hamster will need some sort of antifreeze in its blood, so that it won't freeze when it's not as busy. Be bad if it would get half frozen, then start running. Might crack the die then, on the Thunderrat's head.
falcompsx
09-08-2000, 10:37 PM
the plastic bag is a good idea, but wrong track, I modified my Thunderrat with a full snorkel set, he's completely exposed to the water, yet will survive by means of a snorkel to keep air, also serves as a food chute to keep him from starving, just be sure the curculitate the water to keep it clean and cool...

It keeps going as long as we can keep overclocking them little critters.
mbaker, maybe you can connect some electrodes to the hamster's head and legs. That should allow you to give it a very good boost in speed. Just make sure to have plenty of monitors, because with that much power, any kind of cooling failure could result in an explosion when the water flashes to steam from the resulting intense heat. And if that hamster would get loose then, at that kind of speed, there's no telling what kind of damage it could cause.
Hmm, just thought about something - at high speeds, you can get a lot of wear on the wheel. I believe such a thing has happened to someone - the hamster blasted out of a window or something like that. What about some sort of fine-tuned magnetic containment field around the wheel? It could be used to reinforce the strength of the wheel itself, and prevent disaster if the wheel's bars should fail.

Severe head trauma? I think an oc'ed hamster would probably not only remove the head, but continue going for several miles, unless it hits something really solid. An oc'ed hamster would likely move at many hundreds of miles - it would have a decent amount of momentum. Of course, from what we learned in physics class, if you could accelerate a hamster to 75% the speed of light, or somewhere around there, and hit New York Ciry with it, most of the city would be destroyed in the resulting explosion. Relativistic speeds can really give an object a LOT of energy...

Howste, I think we all should know by now that the speed of light is nothing when compared to the speed of hamster. Why, Einstein came up with his theory of relativity only after observing an eclipse of his credit from the expensive H-III. He discovered a much better alternative in the PENGUIN-7, running linux. Unfortunately, such antarctic birds are rare in the northern hemisphere...
Besides, Hamsters are phunnier, anyhow! All they need is a little food, water, and 3.2v of extra java to get them going in the morning.
howste
09-13-2000, 12:56 AM
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you could reach 75% of the speed of light. Here's my logic: If the hamster at the bottom of the wheel is traveling at 75% of the speed of light, the top of the wheel would have to be traveling at 2x75%=150% of the speed of light. I don't think you could get the hamster above 50% max because of this. Of course with warp technology, the speed of light could be exceeded and all bets are off.
Steve
Jeff7
09-14-2000, 08:46 PM
howste - if the bottom of the wheel is at .75C, then the top would be at the same speed. That's just the way wheels work...
As for the Penguin-7 - it would require EXTREME cooling far from the poles, because it is so adjusted to subzero temperatures already. Heck, it would probably overheat at room temperature.

09-15-2000, 02:35 PM
Wait a minute! If the Penguin-7 would overheat at room temperature because its built in Antarctica, what about a Hampster brought way down south (where there's ice and snow...) and run there? Huh?

Like everybody else I like my hamster too. He's been little tired for last few weeks because I haven't been giving him enough juice. I took him to my friends little pet and they clicked right away.
I didn't know that friends hamster is actually she. We took a board which supports dual hamster drive but they didn't work together because she was shaved and my poor guy wasn't and he always went behind her (wink, wink http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif) when we would make them run faster so he would overheat.
I didn't shave him because I heard that shaving can give him phisycal damages and he would act as Homer Simpson (don't want that).
I heard that some miracle compound can lower his temp because every time he saw her he'd get overheated (horny little hamster).
But he was still slower than her. So, I wen't undergound and got him special "speeding steroids" called Hamstosterone. Tryed putting internal probe but he'd get funny faces and this weird sounds so I switched to external.
I tryed to overclock them both together after that miracle compund and some better cooling and he was spining that wheel so quickly that my friends pet wen't into orbit and she is now known as Willamette.

Jeff7, you're right about the top and bottom of the wheel going the same rotational speed, with the direction of the top and bottom being opposite. However, I was talking about the wheel's forward (linear) speed relative to the ground. The hamster is travelling at the average forward speed of each element of the wheel. The bottom of the wheel actually travels at an instantaneous speed of 0 relative to the ground (unless you see skid marks). In order for the average linear speed of the wheel to be the same as the hamster, the top of the wheel must, in fact, travel at 2x the hamster's velocity. Ask your local physics professor (or your local Bridgestone/Firestone dealer http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif) if you don't believe me.

I just got my new hampster. It has the extended legs, flat head for heatsink and fan, delux optional electrified wheel, super sensitve temperature probe for faster insertion and reliability, integrated ears with rotateing brain stem. I wasn't sure if I should have gotten the last item but I'm sure glad I did cause I was told to be on the leading edge of the new hampster technology you need one of these, and you know the sales man was right. Sisoft just released a new version of their diagnosing software an it out performs every hampster the tested. The only thing I don't like about my hampster is that it make a real funny noise when it starts to run but after the bios initiates the wheel it smoothes right down. I still wonder though where will I put my DSL connection all the holes are filled up?!
Jeff7
09-19-2000, 04:51 PM
I think I see what you are saying, but what you are saying would assume that the wheel is making contact with the ground. Hamster wheels have those axle things that keep it rotating freely.
And, just heard of someone killing his Thunderrat - his Hammyorb heatsink put too much pressure on the T-Rat's external brain. Darn thing just got crushed and doesn't work. It was a bad situation for a little while too - since the wheel was spinning so fast, the dead little thing just started bouncing around all over inside the wheel. Luckily, the wheel held together, keeping the T-Rat inside.

Well, today.... mine died...
I've tried lots of different techniques to make it run faster, but my hAMDster just won't go faster than 450 rpm on the weel.
My first solution was to gear the wheel @ 112, so it would do 448.... which is about the same...
But i wanted more - bu this time all standard hampsters and ferrets do about 700 rpm, and i can't get get aproval to buy a geneticly modified one...
Then i read an article about supercooling the hampters muscles, so the heat from them would no longer be a problem.
I Will spare you for a very graphical and detailed story og what happened... let's just say that small critters and liquid NO2 don't mix... http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif
btw - in my studies, i found that very interlligent hampsters has problems when being pushed beyond their limits, since the brain follows the speed of the rest of the body. so if u disable it's L2 (short term memory), it won't overheat!

Jeff7, I understand what you mean. I guess I assumed that the hamster was accelerated to 75% of the speed of light using the wheel for propulsion as it sped towards New York. If some other means of propulsion was used, the wheel could even be stationary (relative to the hamster, that is) and could easily achieve those velocities.

I think an electromagnetic containment field will be the only thing capable of stopping the turbocharged hamster. An EM field is the only thing capable of reacting fast enough to contain something as fast as an escaped, deranged hamster. Hopefully it will calm down as it runs out of useable energy.

Wow,! I don't know how to say this but I think My hamster has gotten loose and its attacking my neighborhood. I was just sitting there watching it surf the net, it has the new remote laser hamster, and it got this real weird looking glimmer in one of it's eyes. I turned away to say something to my wife and the next thing I new it wasn't surfing the net - it was gnawing the leg of my cat. The cat was astounded it didn't know what to do. The hamster evidently was gaining more power all the time it was surfing and becoming more informed and the next thing you know it was ready to make it's move. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a quick flash of light as it unplugged itself and then it went three times around the room looking for a target and it.. it... it.... Got My Cat:{
There was a terrible squeal a real loud noise like a chain saw and it was gone. I'm afraid I have unleashed a power not yet discovered or comprehended by mortal man. I feel so terrible and responsible for this fiasco. First it was the African bees, second it was the fire ants and now its the electo-hamster with rotating ear and synchronized brain stem.
I couldn't let the world not know about this - this monster I had created. Please..PLease...PLEASE forgive me -- and BEWARE he/she is out there.

lol this thread is almost a year old how long will it go?
And don't you find it funny how this thread was started by someone who either just posted here this one time or.... is one of you in cognito<sp> But it sounded like he was bragging that he was A+ certified.
Isn't almost everyone here?

Overclocking is for the experienced people not the faint hearted folk who thought nothing is possible. Well if I can push a 500 to 1000, hell why not. SAVING ME 500 bucks?!

True, but overclocking a hamster - that takes an expert.

Hey Strip, I think your hamster is overclocked a bit too much there; it seems to be causing some processing errors. Or try reducing the temperature of his cage a little bit.

I have to confess, I wasn't very attached to my last Hampster. I called him 533 Celeron 2 (Celery2) for short. While I managed to get him running at 896 with a watercooled peltier, his little legs weren't even good for 800 with a Golden Orb.
....hadn't posted to this thread for a while...just doing my part to keep it going.

I run my hamster by feeding him steroids. He can do 177 FSB with a multiplier at 4.5. His standard 133 FSB just wasn't good enough for this owner. PIII 600B Katmai.

My girl-friend had a hamster and when I said ah what a cute hamster it bit me on the nose. Well you can imagine I was rather upset. I told her I can fix that hamster so it never bites anyone again. She said don't touch my hamster you'll hurt it. I explained to her that hamsters don't get hurt if you know exactly how to fix them. But, she would have none of that and today her hamster is as slow as ever but it still has its teeth!

My Thunderrat 700 won't cooperate with me. It stubbornly refuses to run faster than 750. I even did some surgery on it, and connected 4 tiny L1 neurons in its brain, but it strangely would not go any faster; it would just reset itself back to 700 if I tried to push it faster than 750. I guess I'll have to try the surgery again, then try some more tweaks in the Fluffy Bedding Menu BIOS III.

Still, after all this time, I can look at what that idiot said to start this thread and bust out laughing. I think I'm gonna print it out and paste it on my door. I know it'll make some talk with the guys down the hall..
Imagine you have a hamster in a little running wheel. Suppose that wheel has a motor on it. You can make the wheel spin a little faster than the hamster is running, and he will keep up for a little while, but soon he will no be able to and he will go "thump, thum, thum" around the wheel like a tennins shoe in a dryer. The same is true with your processor. Overclock that bad boy, and then you will have to call me, Mr. A+ Cert. to come tell you "Well, you nuked your CPU, buy another one!"
That last part is too much, "Well, you nuked your CPU, buy another one!" hahahahahahaha

It's really funny but i dont know if i can post it here! I might get another warning from socalgal! I haven't had a warning or scolding from her for 5 days now! (that's a new record for me!!) hehehe!

I wish I could kill my hamster now, I think a hampster with a dual personality would be fun. On second thought, I don't have Microshaft Winblows 2000
