~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Again, Thanks for taking the time to allow me to interview you.
When did you join the Team? Approximate date is ok if you don't know the specific date.
I joined up March 7th, 2007
If there was something recent that you did that you wanted your fellow teammembers to know about, what would it be?
I'm addicted to coffee, and cheese. I also like long walks on the beach
What is your EOC (extremeoverclockers) stats link?
EOC
You do not have to give specifics (address), but what State do you live in, and if you don't mind telling, what town? (town is not required, but if not a town, a general direction and distance from the nearest 'big town/city' would suffice)
I currently live in Portland, Oregon area with my girlfriend of 6 years.
How did you initially hear about F@H?
Since my first post here almost 2 years ago
After starting, why do you continue to Fold?
A month or two before i started folding, my uncle was diagnosed with breast cancer... a rarity in todays society, but a wake up call nonetheless. Things worked out fine, he had it removed and hasn't seen it crop up again... but it's still scary. There is a mchine here that folds in his honor.
What do you do for a living?
Computers and web design/maintenance
What do you do for fun?
Computers - If a computer is running too smoothly here at my place, it gets torn apart and rebuilt
Is there anything special you do in your spare time that you really enjoy?
I really enjoy just creating something... doesn't have to be anything in specific really... i just get enjoyment out of creating something out of nothing. I LOVE case modding, i fear i haven't done very much of it since i am still new at the whole thing, and trying to get all the money together i need for the tools is... well, daunting
Time to spill your guts. What are the stats of your main folding rig? Why is it your fave? What all do you use the rig for?
My main folder is also my main computer for just about everything: Kentsfield QX6700 ES @3.3 / 1460 FSB /1.34 Vcore, P5BD WIFI, Corsair XMS2 PC6400 3 GB, eVGA 8800GTX, and a Neo HE 500w supply. She's the only machine i have that will crunch an 8 minute SMP frame regardless of project. I call it Quagdor the foldinator ( j/k )
Do you have a Borg-Farm? If so, how many computers, and what are they? (CPU, RAM)
4 machines total, 1 being my main i described above. there is my file server which is a e6600 at stock speeds, with a gig of ram, theres my strict folding only rig in the corner which is an e6700 OC'd to 3.0 with 512mb, and finally there is my workstation that is a lowly 955XE-ES on a badaxe with a gig of ram
What are your future goals? What do you most want to accomplish with your life?
My main goal would be to go back to school and further my knowledge of PCs, eventually i would like to freelance web design, and be onsite tech support for small/medium/large buisness. Also, i'd like to get into the whole LAN party scene locally here in oregon and washington. One thing i haven't really done since i moved to oregon 4 years ago is hook up with folks with similar interests.. i'm always up for meeting new pals
If there is something you want to tell the team, then spill your guts! What have I missed in my questions that could help the team learn more about you and who you are?
The team as a whole makes me really proud to be a part of it. Everything you do makes a difference... and with sooooo much negative BS going on in the world, it's an incredible gift you're all making to the world. WTF
