Well I see you have abit of a lead on me now. Fortunately I've convinced my mom to leave her computer on 24/7, and I'll be home tomorrow to restart my Cel 533A @ 888 to get my keyrate back up. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Even better, I just ordered my new comp (Duron 750Meg, KT7-Raid and 256Megs of PC133) which will be in Tuesday, and I'm sure it will hit 1Ghz at least.

It's time to retake my lead. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[Navin]

Hmm - I'm not sure if all that horsepower will be enough to keep me off your back... http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[Missing the point]

I have gotten quite a lead between us, and I hope I can stay ahead long enough, so that I can get the multiple PIII 667's running at work http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[daveleau]

I have a Duron I am going to build shortly and putting my 266 back online so...we shall see how loing your comeback will last... LOL

Thanks Socal for the heads-up on this thread. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[daveleau]

I really need to catch Socal too http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[RCN_Moose]

Catch Socal??? She's WAY out of my league at the moment. I think it's time to start recruiting some more friends.

I think after I pass you (hopefully http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif), I'll aim my sites on MTP. That should take awhile.

Maybe next year I'll be close enough to go after Socalgal. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

I am scratching and clawing to stay in the top 50 here and it is a battle I am slowly lossing. I must get more power! MORE POWER! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[RCN_Moose]

LOL!
I know what you mean. I can't seem to crack the magic 50 no matter what. Hopefully that will change soon. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[socalgal]

Hey, I like having y'all chasing me http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

Well, I'm hoping I can convince our IT Director (a woman, btw http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif ) at the new company I'm working for to let me put a muncher on at least my work machine ... we'll see what happens

Looks like I'm burrowed in at ol' 40th place again. Time to try to move that up a tad. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[Missing the point]

Well, RCN, I am goin for SocalGal at the moment, so try to keep up if ya can!

[Navin]

Hope you guys got something big coming, cause I'm looking to pass everyone ('cept Socalgal and MTP) that's posted in this thread here in the next couple weeks...

[Missing the point]

I am getting curious as of why I am getting so little per day. I should be getting around 3K per day.....

[jl123]

Don't worry MTP you are doin just fine. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

LOL http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

I'm just about to upgrade my HP(pretty much transform it to a Tbird system(with new case). http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif Maybe I'll stick in a Duron to make sure I hit a gig with it. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[Ultima]

I am gonna chase Socalgal too!!!

Wait a minute, something ain't right....DOHH!!! I passed ya by already somewhat weeks ago. LOL

I am at the point of being passed by some simon somewhat dude, but that won't last long, cause my suprise is building up pretty steady, just a few more days to go and I'll do a "little" dump.

Pim

[RCN_Moose]

Yes!! The stuff was shipped out today, should be here tomorrow. Even better, I've got a friend with who's building a Duron 750 as well. (with my help) I'm sure he'll want to lend his computer to the cause. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[randy48]

RCN_Moose make sure you tell him it will help keep his Internet connection active http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[Missing the point]

Well, I found out why I wasn't doin so good each day http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

my PIII 500 wasn't flushing, so I did a mini-mega-dump today http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[mnx]

I just hope I can stay ahead of all of you... looks like once I get my duron assembled and overclocked I'll still have to find some machines to recruit... I can't wait...

mnx

[Missing the point]

Well, my dad is getting another 2 Celeron 700's or PIII 800's at work, so I may be able to add the following to my fleet:

PIII 667
PIII 667
PIII 800
PIII 800

http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
That would add some nice cracking power http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif

[Navin]

Got a little dump I'm working on right here - I gotta say that it's been fun being in your rear view mirror RCN, but I've gotta pass ya now...

[socalgal]

Not so good news... for me, anyway. Due to the power crisis in CA, we're ordered (at work) to shut systems down (individual workstations) at night. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif

But 8 - 12 hours a day is better than nothing, so I'll be appealing to let my cow start crunching today. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[RCN_Moose]

Well, my Duron 750 is up, and I just recruited a part-time Athlon 550. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
So hopefully my keyrate will go back up. Now it's just a matter of waiting and seeing. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[daveleau]

Oh well. You are 4000 behind and I am nowhere near getting my Duron mobo so... I gues you will pass me...for a while. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
Dave

[RCN_Moose]

Actually, the next 5 weeks should be VERY good. I've got to go to sea on Monday until the 15 Feb. (San Diego here I come http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif!)
BUT, I'll be leaving my computers up and crunching, and having a friend check on them every couple of days. Without any thing else going on (gaming, etc.) I should be able to put out around 2000/blocks a day. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Yee HAW!

Just a word or warning http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif. I have been on holiday a few times and left my boxes crunching but about 4 weeks ago my wife woke me up saying there was a burning smell coming from one of the cows. I dived through to find that the room was full of a burning plasticy kinda smell and the power supply fan had gone and stopped working. I dunno what might have happened if the wife had been out as I am a sound sleeper http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif. I just wanted to share my close call with you just so as you are aware of the risks. Having said that I hate losing even 5 mins crunching time lol http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif.

[jl123]

http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif LOL I worry bout burning my house down. I would kill myself. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif Or should I say my parents would kill me. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/frown.gif http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Well, I have a 386 that has a PS with NO fan in it at all http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Runs fine, and not very hot, either.

It is cool, because there is no fan on the processor, and when the HD spins down, there is NO SOUND WHATSOEVER coming from the computer http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

[daveleau]

Is todayt he day that RCNMoose takes me down a notch? My hopes of regaining my top 50 spot are getting pushed back a bit...

[RCN_Moose]

Well I just got back, and my computers are still purring nicely.

And yes, I've finnally had hit the top 50!
