Unhappy Shutting down

Fellow Folders: I'm going to be shutting down my computers due to work related out of town trips that I will be making through out the summer. I'm thinking 3 to 5 weeks in all but not all in a row.
I will be running when I'm home.

Hopefully, some of the newbuilders that are building C2D machine will join the PCMech folding team.

Sorry to hear that flanzig but I understand the situation. I may be doing the same when the temps outside are steadily high enough to warrant running the central a/c. My electric bills last summer topped $250/month a few times just because the a/c had to run all the time to keep up with the heat being generated by my Folding machines. Don't think I'm going to spend that much this year.

thanks for putting you efforts into this, tho! i also understand where you both are coming from. after my buddy, who owns half the machines i had folding, stopped folding my main system ran into some problems with heat/OC. im still trying to get a stable OC with the new higher outside temps... then my sister got a new system and turned off her old one which was folding. her new one is a 3800 X2 but i cant get folding to run on it because its running Vista THEN one of my other machines crashed and since its at home (an hour away) i havnt made it there to reinstall folding on it...

we will all be back in the game tho, sooner or later. i hope things go well for my fellow folders during these tough summer months ahead!
