May I submit a membership application on behalf of my Celeron 400 MMX: Crunched Classic until closedown, and is crunching today: (and since it does 50% Einstein, it'll be crunching tomorrow, whatever happens with the servers) Anyone else got a computer in the 10 year club? That is pretty neat. The 333Mhz Celeron I had when I started seti@home no longer has a motherboard but I still have the CPU! I was cleaning up some stuff on an older system and I found an old install folder for BOINC dating back to 11/23/2003 3:54AM. Guess I didn't sleep back then either lol I'm sure if I look really hard I could find a floppy with the command line seti@home application I use to use to setup systems at work. Wait.... I don't have a floppy drive anymore. Cheers to everyone's 10 years of setiing!

Oh I had several machines running it past the cut off. I imagine the web server for the company I use to work for still loads it on start up. lol SETI@home classic workunits: 93,865 CPU time: 863,447 hours Join the [url=http://tinyurl.com/8y46zvu]BP6/VP6 User Group[ ID: 920918 ·

Wow a lot has changed since then. New jobs, new career and new computers. Just figure the computers should do something while they sit idle. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Still does. Just make sure the fans work and the vents are clean. Congrats everyone and thanks for letting me play. ernie.. ID: 928165 ·

I don't know if that includes the time spent running the SaH application before BOINC, which I did also. Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream.
