I know it doesn't compare (yet) to Big Fat Numbers Milestones, but I'm about to reach the 100K Total Boinc Credits Milestone!

I'm pretty happy about it, running my 2 dual CPUs 24/7 to reach this mark.

I though it could be a good idea to create a topic where newbies like me could get some proud out of their little progression. I couldn't wait until the 1 000 000 credit mark to be happy :-D

I know most of the users here are big crunchers. I believe many users crunch a little less and still deserve some cheers :thumbsup:

Congrats on the first 100K! :yay:

I remember I was pretty happy when I made my first 10K, let alone 100K! Of course, back then I had a single core PIII and it seemed to take forever to get anywhere. Keep on crunchin' and you'll be at 1M before you know it...

Passed 300K a few weeks ago, mostly due to installing optimized SETI applications. BOINC Stats says I'll hit 1 million on 10 February 2011. We'll have a party then.

I'm comin up to 100k in the next few days... In fact, if it werent for all my pending credit in Einstein I'd probably be there now...
Not bad considerin I started 2009 with only 15k total.

This stuff gets addicting :shock:

Keep 'em coming! Are you using the optimized SETI client? If not, get on it and you'll hit 1M all that much faster!
