I use to have a small wu farm booting Linux from a floppy into memory and crunching. We had group servers to get constant supplies of wu in case the host was down. I can't remember if I had a server at the end for myself or not. I got divorced and that stopped the fun.
Now I'm crunching on a laptop with an i5 2.5. WU will be a bit intermittant if I go back to school in the fall and travel a portion of a few days of the month.

welcome back...and nice to meet you as well :).

i too just came back from quite the hiatus - i crunched for TA from 1999-2001, then stopped for several years, and just started up again about a year ago now. i don't ever recall frequenting (or visiting for that matter) the AT DC forums over a decade ago, so i don't necessarily know who's an OG these days and who's not...even though i crunched alongside OG's for a few years.

What I'm working on right now in my spare time is prepping to take the Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 test in the end of May.

What I use to enjoy in the forums was the buy and sell section and lists of hot deals.
