My, how time flies... :) *EDIT: now with TA DC trivia! :)*

[Wolfie]

Whoa, now that brings back some memories. I didn't even spend that much time at the thing because of my stupid work. Blah. But, it would be great to see you all again. But this time, Ray and Mech better be there.

Mech You have to bring the post about ViRGE out again. It sounds like he thinks you forgot or lost it.

Happy Anniversary mechBgon!!

Time really flies, only 2 weeks left before my 1st Anniversary in SETI Classic!

 

[Polo]

And look what i found on my HD...
Beware... 25 Mb download... on 128 Kbit/s line.

It will stay here only during a few days.

 

[Wolfie]

Actualy, if I remember right, I started not far behind Mechbgon. At least that's what I remember anyways. But again, that was how long ago?

 

[Clueless]

Checking in since I'm not dead yet!!! Another trivial:
Most of us had "herds" but who had an "orchard"?

 

[RaySun2Be]

curse my bad memory for names. Dang it, I know they had a number of Apple PCs, hence the "Orchard", but I can't remember exactly who.

I remember one of them had the "mad" icon, and I think the other used one of the Gamma Flux ones. Still can't remember their names, though.

P.S. Posessed Freak was right.

5 years already. 6 years on Anandtech. Perty cool...

Oh, and who will post the ViRGE vs. Team Anandtech members IRC thread.

Oh come on, be nice please and not post it this year?

Yeah, we're letting you have a sabbatical

That's not like you. You can't find it, can you?

You mean the first PTE? I found a Google cache of it.

I always thought Virge had the mac orchard.

I had a cluster I jokingly referred to as an orchard, but it was SS59 and ErretHamster(or whatever he's calling himself these days) that had The Orchard.

Speaking of old things, my calendar says that I need to put up this year's Most Valuable Cracker contest, but I'm not sure if I want to do it. Last year was the 5th year, and that seems like a good place to stop, not to mention that the MVC contest seems to have lost momentum in the last couple of years.

/me waves. It was good reading the ViRGE PTE log again. If I remember correctly, we barely squeeked ahead of MyCroft for that day, something like 2000 blocks difference. I still have a picture of part of his cluster: MyCroft Cluster (taken back on Nov 22, 1999).

Polo, thanks for bringing up the Engage.rm. I had completely forgotten I still had that. If anyone still wants to see it, you can also grab it from my server: WarpCore Engage. This video is of WarpCore, which was a 12 node "nacel" of dual Celeron's (300MHz's, overclocked to 450 or 463MHz), that is being powered up for the first official time. It is still unfortunate that Clay had to sell off the nodes to pay for the power bills. I still have my WarpCore node running here under my desk.

Although I haven't been doing much distributed computing lately, I still enjoy running the D.Net TA proxy. I've been tempted to start up OGRP2 though.

Good to see a lot of the old folks showing up in this thread. I still lurk myself, just don't post as often as I used to. Take care,

Brad
