I have a spare keyboard in it atm

It's a nuisance. My PC room is tight as it is I don't have room for a keyboard lying around cause of the PC's

It's sitting ontop of the A/C unit atm lol

 

[Parsley]

Trying to recruit people here in my Uni halls at the moment to do some folding for us, see if that helps us hold those Ruskies back a little bit longer. I should be able to get 4 or 5 laptops folding, though I'm not sure wether it will be under my name or not.

 

[oceaness]

Sweet!

Every little helps

Nice one Corran

 

[Parsley]

Might have to scratch that idea, just tried to get somebodies client working on their laptop and it won't connect through to the assignment server. My computer was set up back at home and not in the University Halls so I am thinking it is going to be something to do with the university servers and a bit or port blocking .

The heat finally died down today so Core 2 is back up and running

Have you got the client set to use ie settings?

Have you got the client set to use ie settings?

I hadn't done that but my computer is set up to run through a proxy anyway? Or will that not make a difference?

 

[BillytheImpaler]

The idea with use IE settings is that it can easily pick up the proxy info you've set there.

IE7 breaks this feature so if you're using that you'll have to manually set the proxy.

79 Plasmoid 27580 145
80 Joe42 27508 162

I can't handle the suspense... its a matter of wheter Joe has a quick WU up his sleeve now.

 

[Joe42]

And you know what... all i've got coming is a 44 pointer!
So it'll be 27580 vs 27552.

So close...

Might be too late for the stats

Might be too late for the stats

Thats when it will hit the extremeoverclocking site at 18.00 so if Rich watches the match it'll be there

I was just watching the match after having finished work early and torn round Tesco to do the weekly shop and get home in time - then I thought "hang on - it's time to do the news!!!"

I will save the stats now as it was between 5pm and 6pm on Thursday last week and I like to get a proper week in if I can help it

Not to worry though Matblack - I use the Stanford Stats for calculating individuals production, EOC is only used for the team overtaking figures. Your WUpenis is standing proud on the stanford stats at 625 currently so that's what will show in the news

I doubt I'll be able to get the news all sorted in half-time, will get as much done as possible so it's ready soon after though


COME ON ENGLAND!!!

 

[RobOC]

COME ON ENGLAND!!!

Haha loved the Bud advert - England are playing Trinidad, AND Tobago? That's a bit unfair isn't it?

 

[Matblack]

Might be my one moment of glory, the old rig is now spluttering away on a 2504 and a 2096, chug chug
