Yeah, I sent this to my friends and family for them to sign up. We have a deal, if any of us win the $10k prize, we split it. More chances to win something than nothing.

That would be awesome. For that money you could give em quad 580s.Build a couple sr-2 based rigs for folding maybe.
That would rocket me to the lead of the folding list and keep me there. 4 xeons and 8 580s folding 24/7.............. though id need to get another job to support the raise in power bills.
