:celebrate SM26 Needs A Host! :celebrate
:smokin:

We're putting out the call for a Host for the latest in our Team 93 SMx Project lineup. We've had three computers go out to new hosts in the past few weeks, so your chances are better than ever.

The last vote was the closest in the history of the SMx Project. If you are one of those who missed out, please don't be discouraged. As long as Team 93 continues to support this effort we will keep rolling out the rigs. Everyone who qualifies will get their turn eventually. :)

If you meet the qualifications for hosting one of our team's SMx machines, why not sign up to be a candidate? You could be the one chosen to house this baby in your home and have that nifty extra SMx logo in your sig.

Not to mention all the extra Notable Milestone celebrations in your honor. :vimp:

Hosting Requirements and Selection Process are available on the team page. Please look them over carefully before signing up.

If you feel you meet the requirements and are willing to sign the contract, throw your name in the hat by posting in this thread and giving us some details about your hosting conditions (connection, environment, etc.) and your computer ability that would mark you as a suitable host for this awesome Folding machine.
:smokin:

Here's what Team 93 has assembled for the next lucky host:
SM26 Specs:

Motherboard: MSI P4MAM2-V (MS-7095) V1.2
CPU: 1.60 gigahertz Intel Pentium 4
Hard Drive: To Be Determined
Display Adapter: S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR (Onboard)
Memory: Kingston 256MB PC2100
NIC: VIA Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter (Onboard)
Sound: Vinyl AC'97 (Onboard)
Case: A Brand-New Case & PSU will be shipped directly to the new host

:smokin:

Sign up soon. We will give you plenty of notice before the signup period is closed and the SMx Committee vote is taken.

As is our new policy, there are no geographical limitations on hosting eligibilty.
:smokin:

Check out The SMx Project - Reloaded! thread for more information on the project in general. If you have any parts you could spare for future SMx rigs, go here and have a look at what we need. MB's, CPU's, HD's, and Memory (PC1600 or greater) are in extremely short supply. To keep this project going we need your help.

So, who's in? :thumbsup::fold:

    That thing a Northwood? Hopefully the board has some good overclocking options.

    Willamette. But you might still get some juice out of it. The Kingston ram is CAS-2 stuff, so that may help.

    I'll attach the details:

    Plenty of time, CBD. We'll give a 48 and 24-Hour notice when it gets down to the end, but we aren't there yet.

    Good luck to everyone. :)

    Okey-Dokey, here we go with the 48-Hour countdown:

    Time remaining, approximately 48 hours.

    (...several minutes pass...)

    (behind the scenes chatter: )

    "Cool, eh. When's the next announcement?"
    "Dunno, maybe in an hour or so?"
    "You gonna wait a whole hour?"
    "Isn't that the point of a 48-Hour countdown?"
    "You're going to tic people off if you do this every 60 minutes for the next two days."
    "How 'bout we wait until tomorrow then?"
    "Solid!"

    (behind the scenes chatter descends into a series of Three Stooges sound effects and slapstick violence)

    Listening to your inner self is the first step in finding an appreciation for who you really are. A discovery of the self, as it were.

    Inner voice: "Shut up, Prof, you moron."

    See? It's easy! :mullet:

    I might throw my ticket in the hat if I could fold under my name, and although I fold for Icrontic, I mean as D00D for Team Short-Media. ...But I can't :( .

    When you get an SMx rig, it folds under its own name for team 93.
