You have a policy against it *at home*?

Anyways my excuse for not joining is simple. I'm going to delay fixing my computer until after I move and have more space. It is hard to run a client with the computer turned off.

Cheers,
Ben

I turn it off on occasion

it takes enough cycles that it interferes with gaming performance. Guess "nice" priority isn't nice enough.

Well as for running Einstein@home @home

My mighty resource pool of two machines chug away, night and day. I've almost accumulated enough spare parts to assemble another machine, though, so look out Penn State (well, for average credits, anyway...)!

Imric's Tips for Living

Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.
