    I see that we are slowly climbing up the rankings though. Anyways, I've converted my lab workstation (2 x Xeons @ 3GHz) which goes 24/7 over to Team-TG. Hopefully we can make a dent.

    Cheers!
    Woah you're really making a difference! I won't be home during the next two weeks so pretty much my PS3 is running 24/7 during those 2 weeks

    I switched my daughters PC to Folding full time. My wife's already working on some other cooperative computing task. I am overclocking to gain some extra speed.

    Re: Folding @ Home

    Well I made a pretty lame userbar for teh TG-folding team. Feel free to use it if you want (it's in my sig). I'd like to see a few more people givin' er. on this.

    I'm open to suggestions as to how to improve it..I was thinking a little bird flying by with a folding@home banner behind it.

    but I am no picasso.

    Cheers!

    JAMerica - is there a chance the userbar can display your score or the team score? Plus maybe your ranking in the team?

    Re: Folding @ Home

    Sorry for reserecting an otherwise dead post but I just checked and we're in the top 5,000. It might not seem like much but when you consider that there's almost 80,000 teams it suddently becomes a big number.

    Just wanted to add Xenbast to the list of team contributors... Also noticed that our banner on the Stafford site for our team is broken.

    Now a member of the TG Folding@home team. Seems like a very good reason to keep my PC on all day.

    Re: Folding @ Home

    I used to be on folding@home a couple of years ago but since I bought the new computer, I just haven't bothered installing it again. Now that I know there's a TG team, I've reinstalled and I'll be running 24/7.

    I just switched from the Overclock.net team to TG and am running the GPU2 client on my 2900XT. I don't leave the computer on all the time though.

    Re: Folding @ Home

    Just a quick question.. I have an older rig (P4 2.6Ghz with 2Gb Ram and a 2600xt 512mb Ati Card). Can I run this without a serious drawdown in system resources? I'm very interested in joining the team, seems like a great cause.
