    Let me see if I can clear up what he is talking about, based on my understanding. First off, a bit of background. NASA is mandated by congress to find all NEO > 1km in diameter. They have found 800 but estimates are that 200 still exist (1). The term synthetic NEO is just that, a make...

    NE1 out there doing optical searches w/telescope & software for new planets?

    The Dob will not allow you to track without an add-on tracking platform. I have never used on, but I hear they can work well. Some have even made their own. Yet with any tracking system, for photography you need it to be very accurate. Especially for long exposure's rather than a lot of short...

    Do you stick with a certain project...

    After Seti Classic stopped, I stayed with CPDN for a while, and Rosetta. But Einstein has always been good to me, so I have stayed with it the longest. I like the project science, but it is also stable and fairly nice on my computers. I do switch a few comps to various projects fairly often...

    Thanks SH. I just hit my 2mil goal for Einstein this week so I am happy. ;)

    What was the first machine in your farm?

    The first that is not running... probably a TBird 750MHz or a 233 Pentium. Both would have been on Seti Classic. Oldest still running, P4 1.6GHz.

    Yea, if this is accurate... F@H gets 80% of its output from PS3's.

    BOINC stats question

    Yes, if they are all changed to same address. I did that recently. In fact, in my case I forgot the login info for 2-3 projects. So now the new email address projects have a new CPID and the old dont. Luckily the ones I didnt change only equal 3k credit or so. :)

    Mobile penryn core2duo DC performance

    I have something similar to this, yet not sure if mine is made anymore. I figure for a small price it will keep the lappy cooler. Plus it makes using it on your lap a lot more comfortable! I haven't done any good temperature comparisons of the core during load with and without the cooler, but I...

    Mobile penryn core2duo DC performance

    My C2D Laptop crunches too. Yet I have found that a cooler pad that runs off of USB helps a lot. If not for the pad, I wouldn't run DC on it as I do not want any heat related wear and tear. And nice comparison biodoc. My lappy performs very well also, yet I cannot offer direct comparisons as...

    The TeAm is about to slip back to 15th overall

    Ahh ok. I had BOINC working with proxies before, and they did have authentication. But I am sure you have played with it a lot. Too bad it doesnt work well... ;)

    What issues do you have with a proxy that you cant use BOINC?

    The TeAm is about to slip back to 15th overall

    Einstein has the power application out. I have seen anywhere from 30% to over 50% increase on workunit speeds. And you still get the same credit for less time, as the same amount of work is still being done. The application (4.36) can only be used on CPUs with SSE, but if you can it makes a big...
