Thank you.
I am sure the local electricity company are grateful for me finding BOINC.
As are Scan Computers and other sources of Hardware. Maybe we should start looking for sponsorship
I noticed I managed to squeeze 17th in the UK by TC yesterday along with 20th Worldwide by RAC. My new found system stability is really paying off but its getting very competative at the top of the RAC charts these last few weeks so we shall see how long it lasts.
Defeat Merlyn, no no I said a long time ago I was prepared to concede that was out of my capacity. The key electric meter simply would not work and I think asking the wife to move so I can get real electricity so I can 'BOINC' would make for an 'interesting' conversation.
Any Hoo keep up the good work everyone the 'wee team' is on a roll.

... in a desperate attempt to imitate this magnificent achievement I have bunged the portable in the freezer over night. Them electric thinggies are gonna have to run a lot faster to keep warm now! More GBH than GPU but then one does what one can with whatever comes to hand....

Mostly you can thank your competitive streak!
Well done.
You are now 247th by BoincStats & I am 241th. Soon you will pass me, and lots of others, as you head Skywards and I don't. Please remember to wave!
You are currently 44th in the world overall by RAC. This is awesome
Even more awesome is the fact that Merlyn is second out of over 1.7million Boincers.
We salute you both.

Incredible Steve fantastic work.
), until January 2009, but just 6 months on he is fourth in the team by TC & will soon be second with only Merlyn to defeat for total TSBT dominance. [You've your work cut out there pal!]
