I am in the middle of a work unit (775/2500), Does anyone know what will happen if I have to reboot my computer... I mean will the work be lost?

Go ahead and restart your computer, it saves your work about every 5-10 min.

if you go into the config options, you can set it to how long u want it to save data. [/b][/quote]
Thanks for the info, I rebooted and it carried in where it left off

infested is ahead again,

also we are getting there anyway we are now ranked 1833rd

[Livy]

now 1803, also bigdawg, how you done so much but not got alot of points, are all the ones you got little ones.

[sparsely]

sometimes I don&#39;t understand this thing.
the first WU I completed was like 2500 thingys long, and it took about a day to complete.
the next one I got was 600 thingys long, took like 2 days....
now I got another 2500 and it&#39;s already up to 250.

[clocker]

I don&#39;t understand it either Sparsely...I almost always get 2500 unit blocks, but the points I get for completing them is always different.

@Livy, do you remember where we were when we started out?
Ranked like 6800 or something weren&#39;t we?
Come quite a ways, haven&#39;t we?

I suspect that it gets a lot harder to move up the list once we crack the top 1000.

[sparsely]

heh.
yeah.
have you seen some of the totals of like, the top 10?&#33;

Yup.
When I first heard of this I joined the OC.com Team 32 ( ranked #3 overall).
There a guy over there who gets old, discarded comps and sets them up just Folding. Has like 40 of &#39;em going all the time.
Another guy rehabs older PCs and donates them to retirement homes and senior citizen centers. He has Folding installed on all of them, too.

Numbers matter.

[Livy]

im gonna get folding on a few comps i can get my hands on too, just gave our old amd k6-2 500 to y gran and grandad, that may help a little.

edit: yeah i know, we have come quite a bit, and alot of wu done.
