Merry BOINCmas!!

Why is everybody always trying to steal my Lords holiday? ;)

(BTW - Nice BOINCmas Tree.)

Because you don't own him, that's why.

Have you converted from Islam to Christianity now, Jeffrey?

@Pawley, that's a fine creative use of your spare time. :-)

I wonder if Father Rushmas will come this year?


Puh-lese NO!


But he was funny as Father Rushmas.


He didn't personally think so...


Was that your impression? My impression was that he had a lot of fun being Father Rushmas.

LMAO!! I can't take credit for the "tree". It was posted by a member on our team board and I thought it fit in nicely here. Wish I had all those boxes though! lol

According to him, he was humoring you as a joke, just ask him.

...knowing Rush, he would be the first one to post otherwise already in this thread.

Is that so? I'm sure you know him better than me, so I guess you are right. ::shrug::

Now don't get me wrong...I think that it is very clever and catchy...

...but with all the blue lights it is more like a high tech version of a Hanukkah bush.

And the monitor on top could be a menorah...

But that's a Folding@Home tree, not a BOINC tree ;)
Look at the screen on top.

But happy BOINCmas nevertheless.

I was wondering whether the PC monitor on the top of the BOINCmas tree was showing any of the projects´screensavers?!?! Anyway, if you want to be faithful to traditions, it should show a star. Just a suggestion/opinion, not a critic.
Another issue: I think that all this Christmas advertising, street lights and so on should be started on December 1st and not November 1st!!! I know the trading sector makes big benefits during Christmas holidays and expects them to come/arrive as quick as possible for fast cash but not so early. Moderation please............!!!
