Re: 20 billion credits
Well done Mark - a complete packet of hobnobs for that, I think (unless you are planning on a New Year diet?!)

Re: HOW far North?
Hello! Welcome to our humble forum where the best UK crunchers (and others - can't forget CO!!) reside. Perhaps you could be persuaded to jump ship to UBT permanently? (tee hee)

Re: Sawyer's Cancer Fighting Network
Latest stats show "Total Run Time (y:d:h: m:s) (Rank) 1058:034:21:28:17 (#159)" with 594+ on the two cancer projects, so I think that is it. I'm swapping back to UBT now.

Re: At last!
No chance of that!
It is only a teensy out-the-box Lenovo, but at least it has a graphics card that does something Boinc-wise (unlike my older rather basic desktops, all of which have bitten the dust for one reason or another)
I think you are all fairly safe!
