In case you haven't seen. Dave Anderson's BOINC climateprediction
lecture.
A 31MB davea.wmv file. Sort of interesting, one comment was that
oveclockers sometimes return bad data.

I watched this yesterday after it got posted on the message board, some of
it was fascinating, but I felt that overall there wasn't really very much
info there, and far too many 'urms', 'amms' etc, although I'm sure I
couldn't do any better, it got a bit frustrating; ironically he pays mention
to boinc users being able to set preferences as to what they are prepared to
when and where. It's a shame that apart from the server infrastructure, that
this one aspect is almost the most dysfunctional.
just my 2 pennies worth, Ken Phillips
