Re: Hope Machine, Do we have a host for it?
One suggestion I've gotten through IM from people who've done it before is: spread it out amongst several people. That way one person doesn't take all the hit on electricity, one person doesn't do all the maintenance, etc. In their case it wasn't a matter of having multiple choices for the single host, it was a matter of making "the machine" actually several machines each located in separate places.
I have plenty of space, and I don't mind taking a hit on the electric bill. There are people here more savvy than me, but I've built many computers so I know my way around. The thing I lack most is TIME. I'm willing to make the necessary sacrifices, if other people aren't able to do it.
I expect it would require a lot of time up front, and then less time after it's up and running.

Just to be clear, you are aware of the costs in running even a 6 blade cruncher?
Also the heat factor?
With that being said, you would not need to be the one who sets it up and burns it in, but you could be if you wanted to.
I have gotten the okay to run a small 4 blade cruncher at my place as well. But as with Capn, Time is my biggest enemy right now. For the next 2 months I am extremely busy and have limited time to do "extra" things.
I am willing to help out where I can, when I can and my Fiance understands that if I get involved in this that she will be making sacrafices as well.
