ultimate success will  be determined, over time, by the personal
enjoyment provided by the new stats & scoring systems...

When SETI Classic started, there were probably a few 386 and 486 computers
participating.  Hopefully, not any more.

In contrast, BOINC could potentially generate a few magnitudes more data.
That might be good for some excitement.  We're searching for ET, but who
knows what [serious science] the new data will uncover.
