Aside from points such as Linux vs. windows, are you guys receiving work
units through boink?  Mine just attaches to the server and the server either
says 'no work available' or rpc communication too recent' and goes to sleep
for a random time.

Just checked the top 100, 200 and 300 BOINC computer systems.

Top 100 - 6% are Linux systems

Top 200 - 6.5% are Linux systems

Top 300 - 8% are Linux systems

Top 400 - 7.25% are Linux systems

Top 500 - 7.6% are Linux systems.

The Mac OS/X share appeared to be about half (or less) then the Linux
share, giving non-MS OSes about 10% of the top 500 comsputers.

It may not interest you.....but it interested me...and I shared it.

There will be others who are interested - though you may not be among
them.
