    Heh, come on over to our team, they are obviously putting all the resource
    into the new network.

    Gwan then, I've been shamed into downloading the Linux Sweti@home
    client.

    Bloody command line driven, grr.

    I'll keep my eyes open for something more worthwhile [1] to do with my
    spare SuSE cycles.

    Which is to keep your room warmer by driving your cpu harder?

    Go for the quad processor option, makes for a better fan heater effect.

    Um isn't that because it's got various flavours? eg Linux - unix - I always
    took the * to mean "all types"

    Bit like Windows 9x.

    Must resist. Just make sure that you have the right revision of prom on
    the motherboard so you can run dual processors.

  17. Windows S*x would be more apposite.

  18. Can't check till I get home. By which time the "buy now!" instinct will
    no doubt be suppressed by SWGMBJ.

    Buy it now anyway, I'm sure I can dig out a prom for you of the correct
    revision.
