Over time, I've managed to get three different accounts, all with completed work.

Is there a way to merge these into one (what I would call main) or must I leave it as is?

There is no way to merge accounts. It would be recommended to simply choose one account and leave the others dormant.

There used to be an option to merge on the "Your Computers" page.
After choosing the "All Hosts" option, all similar computers could be merged under the same (latest & active) computer. This option doesn't now seem to be available. This may be because I have no computers presently eligible for merging, or the programming has been changed. This option may have been withdrawn if it had been considered to have been abused.

Whether you do or do not manage to find a way to merge, please make sure you abort all uncompleted work units on the dormant computers, otherwise they will just sit there until their completion expiry date. Straightaway you abort them, they will then become available for others to download and process.

This option applies to computers on the same account, i.e., created on different pc's with the same e-mail id, or as a result of attaching-detaching or new installation on a given pc...etc,.

What I believe, Frank is asking is to merge different accounts, i.e., created with different email id's ....which as we all know is not possible..
