1st Million

Post by Bambi »

Made it to a million after such a LONG time, a new quad core box and Cuda kinda helped a bit though. I also remembered my old seti classic e-mail and got my accounts linked. I really thought I had lost that for ever.

Should have a few 1000 more credits once the S@H servers start behaving again, had to sign up for Milkyway@home just to get some work.

I've done it! At long last  :D The one million marker has been cracked woohoo!

It took me one year to hit 200,000 (pretty much bang on the day i started) and less then 1yr to get past the 1M mark. Shows what a difference a GPU makes!
