Ok, I will like to know a little more about the Boinc@home project?
There are 2 @home projects that I will like to run right now. The
seti@home and the FightAids@home projects. Will Boinc@home let me run
them both? And dose anyone one knows when it will be out? And dose
anyone know how it will work? What I mean you know how seti@home has
2 way you can run it. You can have it run all the time or only with
the Screensaver, will the Boinc@home be like that? Thanks.

    I had not heard of the fight AIDS project. You just cost SETI a
cruncher. I have the AIDS project running now. I hate to give up SETI
but it seems to me that working towards better treatments for HIV is
more important. I have a good friend living with HIV. He is doing
fine but it costs him several thousand dollars a month to stay
    healthy. http://fightaidsathome.scripps.edu/download-FAAH.html

It's a noble cause, but I refuse to let my computer do work that might make
some drug company Billions of dollars.  So I just do SETI.  Just my opinion.
