The thing is..........the boyz in the labs have done wonderful things with the resources they have had at their hands....

And at this cusp......look that up in your dicktionary.

Nah, that sounds like a cult to me...

Besides, it just a pressure release. Just like this thread.

Same same;)

Though I have to admit, I have no idea what/who got you started.

What is this hype for?
How one can know they did awesome things with new equipment and which part exactly is the extraodinary one?
I'm not going to praise anything without knowing why it should be praised.

Well, soooooooooooooooooory.
The Seti staff has deserved this praise for YEARS, even without getting new toys to try to make things better for all of us on this project.
You don't wish to send congrats......fine, bubby.

Well, general praising is not excluded at all, but I like to know what moved you to do so and dedicate a thread to it, explicitly mentioning new hardware.

Did anything change than before or any of our problems solved bcs of the utilization of this new hardware?

In fact any one of us must be congratulated for his efforts for the project so far, speaking strictly. No one knows how many time I spent lately for tweaking my new 2011 system, so I don't expect congratulations, right?

I will congratulate you, my friend. Good job there.

Maybe it's a translation thing. Mark's original post said

The thing is..........the boyz in the labs have done wonderful things with the resources they have had (my emphasis) at their hands....

We all know that the boys in the lab have been battling with some cantankerous and crusty old servers for a long time. This is point of Mark's post.

There were 3 new servers donated to the project about 12 months ago but some such as "Bane", "Bruno" and "Marvin" were still in service. These are the ones to be replaced by the new donations from the GPUUG but the new servers have yet to be brought on-line. Until they are it's chewing gum, baling wire and all hands to the pumps to keep things going.

It's a "Kittyman on Friday night" thing.

We all get a bit cheesed off with the complaining posts that appear on some of the threads in this forum but Mark is one of the few that gets motivated enough to say something positive in reply to them. Hence the title of the thread.

Yeah, all is well. Even I have to blow off a bit o' steam sometimes. My personal motivation for the project gets the best of me now and again.
