Hi, here from Argentina - Buenos Aires, now is Winter seasons here, today we had a nice and sunny day.

Greg, I see your OS "Longhorn" but it seems your benchmarks are very low for a 3.4 GHz CPU

MFP: 1,447.79
MIS: 1,750.03

One of my computers is a P4@2.4 GHz and my benchmarks are:

MFP: 1,368.74
MIS: 5,151.07

Regarding gas price, here it is at USD 2.50 per gallon

Nice to meet you too

i have a mass produced gateway frombest buy memory is only a pc3200 and im not even sure if dual channel is activated appears not to be but according to cpu-z it is? i dont think there is much i can do to speed it up unless i upgrade everything but then what would the point be might as well just buy a new one. any suggestions?

Greg, welcome to Rosetta! Your computer shows as having 2 CPUs, so you should be seeing two WUs crunched at a time.

Interesting. Compare your Longhorn ops/sec compared to my slower processor XP machine here.

        Mine          Yours
        XP            Longhorn
Ghz     3.00          3.60
F/ops   1517m         1448m
I/ops   2195m         1750m

feet first fast computer you have there i know mine sucks best buy just slaps a good processor in a cheap package hence mass produced rigs for cheap and most people like me at the time didnt know any better.im thinking of buying monarchs delux desktops nexttimethey offer quality rigs better than average for a good price.?and john thanks for the excellent link i loved that article.

Hey Lead Head here from Rhode Island USA, gas prices sittin around 2.95-3.09 per gallon. Just got back from camping...

Just the other day i was looking for my max OC, hit around 2.3GHz, the stock is 1.8, I have a cruddy clocking Athlon 64 3000 winchester core. My RAC is a tad low at the moment because i was on another team for a bit under a different user name, and now have switched back

ya so anyway i just lost my job at wow distributing for no good reason i worked my ass off every day while the crack heads just sit on their fork lifts to watch and i was let go because of my unsatisfactory background.! so what the he_ L should i do sell crack to support my family since im not good enough to work .in my opinion this is just the rich that think their so high and mighty they can pick and choose.so i guess its not acceptable to work and contribute to society in a positive way.just need to vent here no reply is expected

its another nice day here in wauwatosa wis 86 degrees.and my muffler fell off my car when i was on my way to apply for a job!thats ok i expected it to happen soon.time to get fixed.luckily i have a new car as my backup.ive been looking into a dualcore pentiun d 950 extreme ed.as the core for my new system but with microsofts new processors due out soon ill have to wait.otherwise even one of them would be obsolete in just months.is there any lawn nuts here because my grass is looking excellent the best on the block.

The only "nut" in the description of my lawn, was me BUYING the place! I've got about 4 acres of lawn! Considering the extreme lack of rain we've had, I'd say it's not lookin' too bad. (Keep it long, so it doesn't burn up; and when you mow, take off no more than 1/3rd of the blade length).

I finally completed assembly of a lawn sweeper. You pull it behind a riding lawnmore... wouldn't it make MORE sense to sweep up the sticks BEFORE they hit the mower deck? :)

...more-or-less as expected... it doesn't do a great job picking up the sticks, which was the primary reason for it's purchase. But boy does the grass look cool when it's all been brushed nice :)

It's got a longer list of excuses for NOT picking up sticks... the stick was partially outside the width of the broom, the stick was partially stuck in the ground (because you have to run over it with the mower before it reaches the sweeper :), the stick wasn't at the proper angle for the sweeper to pick up, the sweeper was going too slow, and so it just pushes the sticks ahead of itself rather than pulling them in to the hopper.

Oh well! It DOES beat all the walking around and bending over and carrying a garbage can full of sticks around the lawn. Just hope my ole mower holds out. It seems to have an oil leak somewhere. And I NEED that mower to vaccuum up the leaves this Fall! I actually have another rider for the actual mowing, but it's got rearweel steering, so not a great idea to two things with it if you plan to make any turns!

...now if i could keep the squirrels out of the bird feeder!!!

We haven't had any problem with the squirrels. There seems to be enough acorns to go around (the lawn is covered in oaks). It's the COONS that come after the bird feeders :( I understand that bloodmeal can detour them, so of course, each day I put some out, it rains! HEY! I many be on to something there! Cash washes will be lining up at the door to pay be to put down bloodmeal again. I don't know if it works yet. Hoping others know how to detour coons.

lol no coon problems here but after the last big storm a few weeks ago i found a baby coon in my trash can sleeping it took some prodding to get him out i thought maybe he was sick due to the wifes cooking:)

Yes, we've had vists from a youngster too. He seems completely without fear of us... and that's a problem! I'd prefer wild animals to be easily spoked and run away, and the babies just seem to barely even notice my light switching and growling and stomping.

I posted some photos to Yahoo, so I don't lose them next time my PC crashes :)

My yard pics
My river pics
My wildlife pics

We're thinking of calling the place "violet oaks", because we have both in abundance. What do you think?
