Thumbs up PCMech F@H Team Passes Ten Million Points!

The combined efforts of the PCMech Folding@Home Team members (both past and present) have led to contributions of over Ten Million Points to this project! While our team ranking has slipped a bit (currently 73rd), every point means more information has been added to the scientific research database at Stanford University.

The work your computer completes in the background may one day be part of a discovery that leads to a significant advance or even cure to many terrible diseases, such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and ALS. If you haven't Folded before (or maybe you haven't Folded in a while), consider adding your processing power to this project. Click on the link in my sig or visit the Distributed Computing Forum for more details.

Happy Folding!

Go Team!

It really takes very little effort to do something for humanity.

Congrats! Although I will continue to run GRID's Liganfit Cancer Research Project distributed program on my system, I applaude your efforts.

Thats great news

Hope that this encourages as many mecchers as possible to join the team and contribute.....that way it won't be long before we're at 20 million and are allowed to congratulate ourselves again

I caved in.

Just installed dual instances of F@H on 6 Dual Core machines on the network I manage (yes I am allowed to).

lets see how much damage they can do.
