WHOA!! That's 26 million steps more than the current one my PC is chomping on. What's the ETA?
No clue, I haven't installed HFM or anything else. Just kraken / langouste. I'm hungry. I'll do the rest in a bit lol...
It's averaging 1% every 19 minutes, so not too bad considering the size. I think when it's done I need to reinstall a different version of Linux. I hate how I have to use sudo with almost every command I type, and my startup script loads the FAH client in read only. grr.
Finally figured it, got it installed, configured, and running. Took quite a bit of doing, as my install menu never prompted the Identity box. Hopefully I can get it to complete some work, not really sure how to optimize it. But considering I'm usually on my tablet while my desktop only gets used maybe 3 times a week for essays, I'm sure it'll do just fine.
Welcome aboard Shoog! The client is pretty good at optimizing itself to your system. Don't forget to get your passkey so that you will get the bonus points after you complete 10 WUs 
Also, does choosing a cause preference affect the team's score. I put mine on Huntington's it has directly affected loved ones in my family.
We're folding like the Devil himself .. what do I mean, you say?!
Active CPUs within 50 days - 666

Cause does not have any bearing on team rankings/score. It will just limit the type of WU's you get assigned.
Haha Dusty...not failed humor at all!
Nope Shoog...it won't hurt the team at all

How do I get it work the dog s*** out of my desktop? Like I said, I hardly ever use it. Gotta be a way to make it just burn a hole in the motherboard.

Just to add to what Dusty said....you may have choosen Huntington's but you might get a few wu for other diseases if there isn't a Huntington's available. This has happened to me many times. So don't get worried if you get one for cancer. It's all helps.
But it also does not guarantee which work units you are assigned.
Status update? That monster should be around 70% or so done right?
Was 72% done and I realized an error in my fah folder... (directory was locked to root only access so when rebooting my startup script couldn't load the config) but anyways, i closed the client after it made a checkpoint, changed the permissions and now my startup script works - but i lost the WU... very sad day!
Next work unit is even larger. 47750000 steps...
But I've confirmed that everything works as it should now - so should be smooth sailing from this point on.

It's a tech tray. Made by Rich... ummm can't think of his full name. I'll get the link to his site. He makes Cases and trays for mATX/ATX/SWTX

Folding@Home Projects is the WU... wonder how many points I'll get with QRBP and bigadv...
Wow. It looks pretty sweet. I had thought there was glass or plex panels in there or something - I guess not lol. Good work man!
I wonder what the beams are - they look like something you would be able to get somewhere for building all kinds of stuff....

Feels like aluminum.
And side note... seeing how "slow" my TPF is on these bigadv work units really makes me want to order two more cpu's, heatsinks, and ram sets... but i can't afford it... argh!
