I've noticed a few irritating bugs (most annoying is that there seems to 
be a slow memory+cpu leak, even with it told only to work in screensaver 
mode).


On the plus side, you can use the same client to sign up for other good 
scientific causes like [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ClimatePrediction.net.

 Nope. Don't have a 24/7 PC, just my laptop. Might run some
 distributed computing thang when my main pc arrives in oz. but may
 not.

 Charlie *might* be able to get the list of contributors accurate
 again if I understand this Boinc setup correctly.

 Unlikely! But I'll give it a go if/when I'm back on a desktop 
 machine.


Eh?
I was talking about administrating the group. You don't need to be 
running Boinc or Setiathome to do that. It's just a webpage that wants 
a password.
Or is it?

Yes, probably. What I neglected to say is that I'm too busy to look  
just now - I have only a few days left in Australia and Claire and I  
have paperwork up to the eyeballs to get our Partner Application Visa  
in before I have to leave...

Dave *was* at the top of the list before they did some 
re-organisation, but at the moment I seem to be the only active

Somehow, that makes me Number1!!! (I'm the only one who shows up 
on the page for our team today.)

Actually I was at 3 or 4 on the Brinneller team for the last while.

I did get the letter, nicely customized and thanking me for the 7-2/3  
years
(about 4800 units processed) of CPU time I'd donated to the project  
so far.

When I was an IT manager, I could commandeer a lot of CPUs.

Anyway, I'm folding proteins these days. A little more down-to-earth;  
might

just save lives.
