Another Machine Folding

Work have just delivered my new desktop PC - a spanky Dual 3GHz Xeon beast, with 2GB RAM :dribble:

It should be Folding flat-out for the team by the end of the day...

That will be an awesome folding machine, just make sure you are running multiple copies of F@H on it to maximise its capabilities - use the -local flag and different machine numbers to identify the different threads. Oldie got a similar machine going at hyper-speed :blink:

Don't dribble too much guys, it is after all a work PC, and as such won't be doing anything more glamorous than running engineering apps :mellow:. It'd be wasted on most home applications.

Already done mate

. Both copies running as services, with different device ID's, utilising both Xeons at 100%.

The only time the folding rate should take a hit is during working hours when I have to use the box for the reason it was bought.
