(looks like this one has dual 5150 2.66Ghz Woodcrests).
Genuine Intel(R) CPU @ 2.66GHz
Number of CPUs: 4
Cache: 4096 KB
I think so, too. It looks the newest Xeon 5150 processor with Woodcrests.

The hosts:http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/hosts_user.php?userid=49316.

Aren't you surprised? You can find several Core2 Duo processors from the list! Isn't he an employee of Intel or a PC shop, or doesn't he have a friend who works for the company?

Actually this computer with conroe was attached to the project first time at July 4. At least the owner of this computer is supposed to the person who got the newest processor by the day, so he seems a tester (or writer?) of it.

That one is a Kentfield.
hmm... Is Kentsfield available already, including prototype? Even so, I can't imagine how one get the new Intel processor.
Or, is it test done by the Intel developing team to measure ability? lol In fact, it seems easy for them to produce Kentsfield, since Kentsfield just consists two dies of conroes. It seems the same way they did in the case of Presler, Pentium D 9xx.
24) Message boards : Number crunching : does using optimized boinc clients hurt rosetta? (Message 20800)

Please refer this thread: WOW! Where can I buy this machine!

And this post on a thread of the board of BOINC Synergy, a team of BOINC crunchers, said that,
using an optomized BOINC without using an optomized project application is merely inflating your credit requeste - a form of credit cheating.
(BOINC Synergy, Optimized version of 5.4.9, John McLeod VII, Posted: Sun Jun 04, 2006 6:46 pm.)

As he is a volunteer developer of the BOINC client, he seems worthwhile to be trusted. So we may say that: without optimised applications of Rosetta, using the optimised client can be regarded as a way of cheating.

But cheating itself don't hurt the results. Develpers can get genuine data. So Rosetta doesn't produce false scientific results from them.

Anyway, haven't developers of this project changed a way of counting credit, not to only FLOPS reported by the client influence the credit, already? Perhaps there was a news on this point on another thread of this project, but I'm not sure. Could someone notice its URL? Thanks.

Anti-virus program is not essential with Windows. Just a free software firewall is enough.
For example, ZoneAlarm is good free firewall software.
And one of the best free antivirus softwares seems avast! 4 home edition. This software works not only on x86 but also on x64 architecture. Features of it are: real time watching/scanning, SMTP/POP/IMAP4 protocol watching, webshield and so on. It's worth to try.

Anyway, 30 machines would cost me soooo much money.

Physics processing performance.

This seti forums thread can be useful. On this thread the similar thing is argued.
