Hello Everyone,

I wanted to let everyone know that the email servers are fixed on our site and all the emails should be working correctly.  

Here are some emails that maybe helpful:

QUOTE

Removed Addresses!

Please visit our web site to locate contact information...


Hope these make it easier for you to contact us as we continue to make our cluster grow...

Hey Krusty2k,

Goood call, but your wrong on one point.  We are not an academic organization, nor are we taking any funds from such organization this entire project has been funded by one single member, built by another, and administred by the third.  Now what we are planning on doing is "Donating" the ability of this cluster to students of high school, and university who want to learn about these types of things.  They can use our processor power free of charge.  Thus, no academic organization funding is needed, nor required so I can not see hwere we are any different than anyone else who striped M$ code from an xbox and loads linux on it to be a full time web server, email server, file server, or even a desktop.  Don't get me wrong I am not "flaming" you because you may have misunderstood the whole concept of our project or maybe I have made a mistake in the way I presented the project to the world.  Either way good looking out because everyone should stick together and work together on a project like this...

Whelp, I am off to work on the project...

Take Care.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
We have just found out that the name ClusterX is a trademarked for a product that the company VERITAS sells. We by NO MEANS intended to step on the toes of any company and try to use their names. We are working now to locate a new team name and change the website information. Once this is done we will redirect the website www.clusterx.org to the new site. We appologize for the confusion as we never intended for this to happen.

Please submit your ideas for a new name for the project to this email address: [email protected] us rename the World's Largest Xbox Cluster... Thank you,

Team ???

great idea and i wish i had the skills to do that

maybe upgrade the ram on each to 128Mb?  i got a dead mb i will donate to help get ram
have you thought about useing it to find that ms signiture code if that project is still going on

i can see that ms might not like it becuase the linux part
but maybe get it to run windows 2000 or 2003 data center they might like that tongue.gif

it is called gimps (great internet mersenne prime search), and it can be found at www.mersenne.org.  the search is on to find the 42nd mersenne prime (in the format of [(2^n)-1], the 41st mersenne prime is over 6 million digits long.  great project btw, hope things work well for you guys.
