What a horrible choice for a project.
They have no 64 bit Linux or 64 bit Windoze apps,
which means I cannot use 11 of my 13 machines...

Their server won't send the apps to 64 bit clients...they need to upgrade the BOINC server software, and the IT staff is unwilling to do it...

@ohiomike: Give us what you got...it's for vault points...<snicker>

I've got VMWare & Windoze on all my Linux boxes, but the overhead sucks-
You have to run XWindows to have VMWare work, so you have 2 extra levels of support tasks running.. Kind of over-rides to advantages of a nice clean O/S.

Try vmware ESXi.
You can download it for free and the overhead is low.

I just realized how close we are to Ars Technica!

Their average is around 8800, and ours is about 8100

I'd bet we'll bump up the RAC and start whittlin' away at their 1.8M total

(We have only 1.14M) Sad

That might be doable given our performance in past PoTM
