SETI farms should be illegal

Hey,

Lets all pretend we didnt actually read that "SETI farms should be illegal".

OK, cool. Now I can start throwing parts in these 2 new cases that were delivered today. :)

They wont be screamers. I still have lots of Intel parts to make busy before I can start drooling over the XP's.
 
This seti farm tried to self-destruct this week, or at least part of it:
my dual p3's mobo burnt a trace out and was showing 15.54volts!!!!! Psu checked at 12 so I left it running....same way I trace short circuits in a car or bike: wait till it burns out.

Well, I now know why the thing was crashing all week! It is now (hopefully) repaired; I'll have to test a while, and then, with luck, I can oc it again.

I love my soldering iron:cool:
 
Wookie8662: My sincere apologies if I offended you, or anyone else, with my "SETI farms should be illegal." I intended the comment to be a combination joke as well as a compliment to the OC team members who put in a great deal of time, effort and resources to make this team such a productive and cohesive group. I also hoped to throw a few members off guard so that when I bring on another cruncher I can surprise them by closing the gap between me and them (rogerdugans, toomnymods and most recently, Johnsin from Taiwan). I guess I just have to learn that my tongue-in-cheek sense of humor doesn't work well in the written word.

I've had a couple of problems with this as well <LOL>

But that is what communication is: not alway perfect understanding first time, but asking for clarification until the both parties ARE understood.

Now if only I could get this mobo to understand me.........................

And why does she not belong to this group? :) :) :)

Haven't coaxed yet to do it.....I can sneak and ask for her password but it would be delivered to her e-mail.....and then just when she doesn't notice extract it and make her join us :D :D :D

I won't be doing that one

Heh, no offense taken.
It's pretty hard to get me all riled up.
Unless your name is Bill Gates :D

Well in that case lemme ask this: Do you expect us to believe that there were 8661 people named Wookie on this board before you joined???

Nope, but there is a Wookie almost everywhere.
So, I added the 8662 (phone language for TOMB, short for TOMBSTONE) to my userid. I used Wookie on all the older MBBS systems, before the internet became "the place" to chat.

I havent checked here yet, but I'm almost sure there was a Wookie here at one time. Almost always is.

Then how come there's never a wookie around when you need one? Why just last week....
