I started to run Rosetta@Home 20ys ago.
I started with a single core Pentium 4 1,7Ghz that makes 86 points at cpubenchmarks - now i'm crunching with Amd 3700x that make 22.000 points with the same consuption (and i'm evaluating to pass to 9700x that maked over 37.000).

A lot of things has changed in my life (a wife, 2 sons, etc) and in the Boinc/Rosetta fields (multicore cpu, 64 bits OS, gpgpu, AI, Nobel Prize for Baker, etc).
I've made 12 milion points and over 2000 posts on forum.
Is it too little? Is it too much?
I don't know, but i'm still here, with my little hw to try to help the science!!

Thanks for your contributions to Rosetta@Home. I joined a few days after you did (December 9, 2005), but just recently noticed my anniversary. Like you, I used much different hardware to crunch on behalf of Rosetta in those early years. In fact, I remember crunching on behalf of Rosetta using PowerMac Motorola G5 "cheese graters." Nowadays, two of my main Rosetta crunchers are MacPro "cheese graters" with 32-core Intel Xeon W CPUs and 192 GB RAM. Each of those rigs features three AMD Radeon RX6800XT GPUs - which of course are useless for crunching Rosetta tasks.
