Default Down on the farm

I'm busy folding on the rig in my sig and to try and boost my effort I started folding on my old Celeron too... my question is is there a way I should differentiate the two rigs from each other so I don't get exactly the same WU on both? Or won't this happen (it would suck having the poor Celeron running for 4 days straight to get a result and it have been in vain )

Very small chance of the two getting the same WU, the WUs are picked randomly. You can have both of the clients going to the same name and it'll simply count you as having three (Two from your dual core if your using SMP, or just one if not) Just set them both up and will be well.

Each rig will get its own WUs. On that little Cely I would assume you are going to run a single folding client anyway. Are you running SMP on your sig rig?

The single core clients have deadlines that run into the months, so you should not have a problem using it on the Celeron, especially if it can knock them out in a few days.

Waiting for a 64bit Linux distro... then I will give SMP a shot
