How do you guys do it?

I'm looking here at how many work units you guys push out and I just don't get it. I know you use a lot more than one computer to push out these work units, but where are you getting these extra computers from? Schools? Fixed LANs?

I built 4, gave 2 away to relitives, and keep one very old one.


The 4 homebuilts have F@H installed and run with hyperthreading, so each computer runs 2 versions of F@H at the same time. Get double the work done in same amount of time. Of course with the older one can only run one F@H on it.
