Happy 10th Birthday Team AnandTech

Wow!!! 10 years! Happy birthday TA! I still remember my old RC5 and SETI@Home fleets from about 8 or 9 years ago! Before BOINC came along and I left the game! Good to see there's so much worthwhile crunching going on!

Why PieDerro Isn't Producing Anymore!

Wow you guys post fast! :) Man it's great to have a team you can always count on! It's becoming a real rarity these days. And that is exactly right, while the legal cr@p does get in the way - it's merely an obstacle, not an outright impediment! :) Cheers, PD

Why PieDerro Isn't Producing Anymore!

Hi TA SETI, A long time ago, in a forum far far away, a chap by the name of PieDerro would produce WUs for TeAm SETI! This of course, happened with lots of PD's esteemed colleagues (you know who you are people!). Anyway, that was in my high school / early uni days. Now, after using some...

NASA to Unveil Plans to Send 4 Astronauts to Moon in 2018

Whilst i don't necessarily agree with the objections to sending man to the moon again, i'm all in favour of putting that money to better use (still space exploration). Surely, with 12 years, and all the brilliant scientists and technology that $100 billion could buy, we could be maybe...

i have (6) 500mhz hp's

Wouldn't you simply get more efficient processing just installing the client on each machine and then being credited, yourself, with the points?

SETI 1 Update

Hi TA SETI TeAm! Long time since i've been here - and apparently, it's been a long time since my crunchers have been crunching. I checked up on two of my previous SETI Queues the other week, and found that both machines (in separate physical locations, and on separate networks) had stopped...

Woman sues when "100 Grand" prize turns out to be chocolate bar

I can't understand how punitive damages could possibly be awarded in such a case?! Punitive?! What for??? The issue of misrepresentation could go either way in the US i think (England and Australia would probably tend to decide that this was not a case of misrepresentation at all). But...

Basic Asset/Inventory Management Software?

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone here could point me to some very basic inventory/asset management software? All I really need it to do is work as a standalone piece of software on one computer. It just needs to be able to keep a track of all tools (for builders/mechanics) and then needs to...

Best Platform for a SQL Ecommerce Server?

Thanks for the info. Yes, we found some issues in our SQL database that was hampering performance. Nonetheless, ASP.NET appears to be a real resource pig. Anyone have any answers on the issue of Daul Core = Dual Physical Processors (for the purposes of Win2K3 licensing?). Cheers. PD

Best Platform for a SQL Ecommerce Server?

Also, if anyone knows the answer to this question, that would be great: Does Windows treat dual-core processors as two logical processors or two physical processors? I know that Windows treats at HT-enabled P4 as one physical processor, but two logical processors. Would it treat a...
