Not for the UD race, just as long as you're under the 25k. We'd like to draw interest to UD and our other team in general so the widest possible audience of new UD'ers is what we're looking for.

 
I'm in. Haven't done UD before, so, as of 3 minutes ago, I am now folding for UD.

Lets go people, signups are half way over!

Don't forget to help out the other side of the team, they have turned boxes over to help us time and time again, lets show them some love!
 
Damn... I guess I have too many points..... Are they points with the [H] or with UD altogether... cause I have about 400k w/o the [H]. :D

 
Ok guys, were now at the halfway point! Get those entries in! Remember, the winner gets an entry into the CPU giveaway. Also, for you guys that had too many points for F@H, this is a good chance to get in on something different and delve into UD!

 
okay, for the sake of this race i've put my main box (the A64 one, which is somehow stable on my SATA Install of Windows, it just can't burn CDs :rolleyes: ) on UD!

username: Carnival_Forces (with an underscore).

 
I see you are going to make me do it... darn you Carnival! :D

I will be temporarily suspending SETI @ Home on my old 1333 box to add it to UD... so, I will be bringing 2 CPU's to the fray:

My primary 3400 Claw at 2.5, and my 1333 @ sadly, stock, cause ECS don't OC for shi*.

that's because you keep refusing to put the underscore between Carnival and Forces, like this: Carnival_Forces :eek:

hehe

Good one. I am currently in the middle of a ROFL, which I plan to follow with a WTFOMGBBQ.

What is a 1333, you ask?

A 1333 was a portable heater in the shape of a CPU made by AMD, called the Thunderbird...and, 5 years ago, was the pinnacle of performance with a 266 FSB! :D
 
i just upgraded my amd900 UD box (the only one so far :p) to a 1333 tbird. UD claims it to be 134% the speed of a 1.5ghz P4... i'd believe it. i'm actually running the machine with 384 mb of memory @ 133 fsb (mobo won't go higher :rolleyes: but at least it was all free) of which 256 is pc133 and 128 is pc100. working fine, though...

i may switch my main box over too, (at least for the time being - i.e. until stanford fixes squid compatibility) but we'll see.
