So they are going to switch clients, fine but where is the info for boinc

(slang for a bonk on the head)?

It's "Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing". A handy place
to look up acronyms is http://www.acronymfinder.com/

                               what will it work with (seti monitor, seti
spy)?

None of those. Each BOINC/SETI client must connect directly to the
data server.

     Is there an advantage to changing (better crunch times)?

You get to keep crunching. I think the clients are a bit slower.

                                                              Or is it just
newer (more full of ooopps). 

That, too.

                            I can tell you, with my 30 years experience in
electronics, it takes a while to work the bugs out of anything and that does
not include developers using it. -- 

They seem to feel the bugs are mostly gone.

Windows is like SUVs; a bad idea, poorly implemented, unsafe, with a
lot of intept users, but a fact of life we have to put up with.
