    interesting read... probably not something i want to participate in though lol
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    damn it Pete, youve got me obsessed again - got both the laptop and pc at home running it, and have installed it already on 3 of the newer computers at work (all Core 2 Duos @ 2.83GHz Click here to enlarge Click here to enlarge )

    dunno if I want to chuck it on the server just yet - unless I change the affinities because our dispensing program will only hit on one processor. (its old and crap and designed in the days of 486's.... Click here to enlarge )

    no benefit to you at all.

    think of it as helping the good of the world.

    and the screensaver gives you pretty colours and graphs and stuff
