If you edit your client state to give a download speed over 90000 and are willing to have a 27MB download then WCG will accept your computer.
There are only 82 wu's that are being sent out 10 times each at this stage of the project - read other threads on WCG to find out more.
My windoze machine has "Message from server No work is available for AfricanClimate@Home" :cry:
I thing for the present I will just carry on with dddt work.

approx 6 hour WU - this is a two week climate model!

The workunits I've tried so far have had validation issues.  So far around 20 results returned in each, 'inconclusive'.  Twenty-fold replication is an amazing waste of CPU time IMHO.
