Congrats to all those that reached a new milestone!!

How did you get PPD? Just based on points this month divided by days?

Not to be a narcissist or anything, but I'm under the 200PPD section and have 3840 average in Extreme's FAH stats and more like 2k average/day...

Thanks for doing them though!

Holy crap! I'm doing well for a guy who started folding only 2 weeks ago.

I wonder if I can sneak a client into my dad's laptop without him noticing.

This is stats "between June 1st 2008 and September 1st 2008" so it is total # of points achieved between those two dates divided by the number of days between those two dates. It does not take into account your start date. So in your case it is 62880 points increase over 3 months so about 700 PPD so you are in the 600PPD+ section.
If keep folding like you are currently, then next month it will be much closer to your current daily average.

1) yup!!
2) not suggested. If a work PC, can get in serious trouble. And for notebooks in general, would need to tune it for optimal heat/noise/performance (e.g. using NHC).

Thank you very much Tarx for the update. I imported one set of data a while back thinking I would write something myself but I sort of left it there.

Go TR GO!

Thanks to HD4850, I'll be more serious on folding than previous month.

Thanks for the update. It's good to be back folding. Even though my main C2D PC at home is no longer SMP folding until I can afford to replace the PSU or overhaul the whole thing (again in less than 1 year), I've managed to add a few clients from work PCs which are all macs (eat that Team MacOS X).
