What happen to timing comps when they didn't clash with already set comps ?
Would appear that that form of common courtesy doesn't apply to certain teams.

Well we've got some crunchers on it and it's at least difference than the other monthly challenge projects so I'm in with some GPUs.

Unfortunately I don't think they ever got their AMD GPU app working.

Don't bother, the GPU WUs -CUDA 5.5 only- give as much credits as the CPU ones and are slooooow. You can put your GPUs to better use, credit-wise.

Did they get a AMD GPU app running?

They only have a CUDA 5.5-based GPU app, so only with hacking would you be able to get an AMD GPU running them.

Ha! That question was a classic diversion Dirk. While you researching that, TSBT passed AMD Users!

TSBT has passed BOINC@Poland and moved into 11th position. Do we have enough momentum to take 10th from Boinc United?
EDIT: Well that didn't last long. B@P have passed us again. AMD Users is back on our heels too. On top of it all the temps are going up to the high 60's here today and it's getting stuffy in the office. I have to suspend asteroids on the GPUs until after hours.

I'm a bit late to the party, again, but I'm now on it.
