4 years of computing time

Just checked my WUProp hours and at some point within the last few hours, I've hit 35,040 computing hours - 4 years! :D And I've been a member of BOINC for ~3 years, so I'm averaging well over a year's worth of work a year :D

Hi Chris

Excellent stuff - well done to you for all your efforts...it's not easy to stay focussed on this sort of hobby, as can be seen by the number of people who join up and then stop shortly afterwards.

So, congratulations on your perseverance !!

regards
Tim

Hi Tim,

Thanks! It's an odd one because the actual hobby doesn't take much 'effort' per se, it's the tracking and interaction that takes the time! It's one I enjoy though :) and even if I slip off the radar occasionally, I'll be back :D

Does that mean you've managed to invent time travel as well?! :shock:

Thanks, Mark! (And Chris too :D ) I wish I'd invented time travel - could bring in some serious money to buy new gear ;)
