    New NCI Project

    Like wuprop, it's NCI, so it takes next to no resources and can run next to your other projects without losing a cpu core. Has both Windows and Linux apps.

    Its purpose is to generate hours/stars on WuProp

    Not really sure what it's currently doing, but while I had it running on my main laptop it really caused a lot of lag. Most likely associated with the USB Docking station my Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor/Network are all connected through. So be aware, it may not be as NCI as expected.

    I hope you are not running win 10 on that laptop Mumps. LOL Of course you aren't. My roomie had to use the printer and managed to screw everything up for me. It seems Win 10 did the download and update taking around 3 hours......before failing the upgrade.....took another 4 hours to reset everything.....SOMEHOW reset the drive prefs from AHCI to IDE.....and then my main stopped working totally. Luckily, fixing the drive or resetting it failed too or I'd have a giant mess on my hands. None the less, this new project seems to be running as well as the other NCI projects on my main with the 8.1 drive running. (going to start the backup and re-doing drives just to get Win 10 on another drive.....see if that fixes the 10 minute boot time) I'm also going to add it to my other systems because I need wuprop apps that I don't have to poke with a stick for hours.

    An interesting tidbit showed up on the forums. The admin is planning on making monkeys_V2 a full blown CPU app in Q1 2016. So credits we are getting on the project for the NCI apps are probably irrelevant. The hours on V2 may still be worth pursuing depending on whether they rename the app or not.
