Darin,

Sorry.  I should have been more clear.  The START expression in the 
condor_config determines the machine requirements for starting a job. 
By default it is

  START                   = $(UWCS_START)

and

  UWCS_START      = ( (KeyboardIdle > $(StartIdleTime)) \
                    && ( $(CPUIdle) || \
                         (State != "Unclaimed" && State != "Owner")) )


Have you made any changes to the START expression or to any of the 
expressions it uses?
