[Folding@home or short FAH](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding_at_home "Folding@home or short FAH") started in October 2000, and I've joined this concerted effort shortly after. I've contributed to the project ever since, not even stopping once. Despite my [humble means](http://fah-web2.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=userpage&teamnum=2804&username=Cobra "humble means"), my tenacity resulted in a slow but steady buildup of completed work units. Today, I decided to check my [progress](http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_list.php?s=&t=2804 "progress") and noticed that I've recently entered the top 500 of the FAH community. More precisely, I currently rank 362 of 1700179 with, almost unbelievably, 100 million points:  All these points have been obtained in the honest old-fashioned way: with my CPUs grinding away while the GPUs of other teams danced weightlessly in front of me.
