Well, the section is fairly useless, but once I get all moved (and finished with school projects) i'll start my machines up again to fold, I think we could probably just do with a sticky in Technology or Off Topic (or even the Site / Forum sections).

I don't run it anymore. Windows thread priority management is poor and I'd have to close F@H every time I went to go play a game.

After the last time I formatted, I just never bothered to reinstall it.

Yeah same here. Also after moving I lost a bulk of work machines that I used to run it on as well.

So are you going to kill the thread ?

Make an executive decision one way or the other and let everyone know.

Personally I still think that it's worthwhile keeping it going, we might get some newbies on the team.

It's a good cause that shouldn't be relegated to the state of "too much bother to keep running/installed". but that's just my opinion.

What do you think...?
