I have to say I am a little addicted to Purdue U's Rack-A-Node, but I can not seem to get too far past level 10. A quick Google search did not help when looking for a few tips. So, if you stumble across this post and have accumulated 200,000+ pts please leave a comment. Share your thoughts.

I have thought of a way to balloon your score at the end (that shoudl be enough of a hint to figure it out), but haven't been able to get much past L10 myself.
Have tried 3 distinct strategies, to no avail.
Yeah, that's not bad but ... kind of cheating no?
I made it to level 14 i believe - (one level past where Life Sciences are introduced). I finally made it that far by spreading the nodes across the racks as i filled them in, paying special attention to the top and bottom slots when upgrading as they get two immediate passes on the jobs. By the time you get to level 10 you need to have almost all the servers you've bought so far at 16GB of Ram, Hi Spd communication, Lvl 2 or higher processor. I've found upgrading the nodes fully is more important then trying to have more and more nodes.
Good tips, thanks!
I just started to play this game a few minutes ago. So far I have gotten to lvl 17. I had the idea that old jobs started to dissappear but they actually get more demanding. One thing is for certain. UPGRADE YOUR MEMORY AND PROCESSOR, I only say one that needed Compiling and that was around lvl 13 or so, everything else needed Ram (mainly) Processor (that its a bitch) and Communication (which killed me). I'll be posting something more detailed if I pass lvl 20
