Though this is slightly dated Supercomputer link (http://www.top500.org/lists/2003/11/press-release.php) wouldn't it be nice for our team to have one of these folding for us? Though they are used for other purposes, it would be interesting if they do fold?
BTW Happy Easter everyone! Don't eat to many eggs or candy.
Hooah!

Crayx1 only made it to 19th place. I thought it was faster then that. 19th fastest is nothing to sneeze at for sure and I'm sure in the next yr or so they will have a better showing. At least I hope so thier stocks are in the dumper and could use lift.
Happy Easter all. Enjoy the day.
Buy it with the earned T-shirt money, LOL. Have fun trying to afford one of those things, unless of course you own some major brand yourself. In which case, GO FOR IT!

I am choking on the number of WU's that thing would shred. Could you even imagine? 36.86 Tflops/s......Wet dreams are made of such things.

heh funny this thing should be mentioned again. Guess I get to tell the story again. That X1 that made 19th is a nice piece of artwork. Has only 256 procs as of the time being. I got to go touch it a few times since it sits right next to the networking closet back at my old work. I asked my boss if I could get it to fold and he gave me a wierd look :(. So unless we can get the money from T-Shirts, the Pheonix isnt gonna be folding for us :mad:

.528 petaflops from all those systems combined would, if used for just one week, put us a bit ahead of hardocp.
