(moderation:
I CAN TELL THAT MY TINY CONTRIBUTION IS VERY INSIGNIFICENT COMPARED TO THE HOARDS OF P4s W/GIANT MEMORY WORKING ON THIS PROJECT. AM INCLINED TO PUT MY PUNY RESOURCES TO MORE MUNDANE THINGS LIKE RENDERING BRYCE COMPOSITIONS... MY "GIRLS" (MY COMPUTERS) ARE BETTER THAN CRUNCHING NOISE .. I DO LIKE THE FAME AND FORTUNE - :).. BUT ALAS - I THINK I WILL ALLOW THE "POWER COMPUTER GUYS" CRUNCH THE 1000000X BILLION TO ONE ODDS TO FILTER OUT OUT THE VIBRATION I CAUSE WHEN I DRIVE BY THE OBSERVERTORY EVERY DAY ON MY WAY BACK AND FORTH TO WORK.
CPU TIME MAY NOT COST MUCH - BUT FOR ME, THE BIG BOYS CAN PLAY WITH THEIR BIG MACHINES --- AND I MUST RELAGATE MYSELF TO DO MUNDANE THINGS LIKE RAY TRACING AND RENDERING... FOR THE TINY CONTRIBUTION I CAN MAKE WITH MY MEAGER PROCESSING IS MORE THAN INSIGNIFICENT... IN THE SEARCH FOR SOMETHING WHICH IS VIRTUALLY IN OUR VERY HAND. I SHALL WAIT TILL I GET THE LATEST MACHINE ON LINE .. JUST TO HAVE A LAUGH ABOUT THE WAY AMD SEEMS TO KICK BUTT ON OPS / SEC OVER INTEL ON THE EINSTEIN BENCHMARK. OTHER THAN THAT, SADLY - MY POOR LITTLE GIRLS... WELL, THEY WILL HAVE TO BE SATISFIED TO PROCESS THE NOISE I MAKE... SEEMS A LITTLE MORE PERSONAL ...

is all I can hear with your shouting!
Did you know about the invention of the lower cases?
Using only upper cases is the same as yelling, and considered as an insult by me.
So, behave, or be ignored further on.

If you're quitting then

If you're quitting then disconnect from BOINC because you've got over 20 results which were sent to your machines and there's no way you're processing all of them. You're not simply "not helping much"...you're slowing things down and the project would be completed faster without you than with you.

What a set of arrogant bastards this project seem to have spurred!
I'll quit, too.
Without shouting, but that's exactly what I'm doing.
I'll devote my little contribution to the other BOINC projects (but Pirates, of course).
Bye bye!

Every machine is important. All contribute to the whole, and none are insignifcant.
