Granted BOINC is simple install and run, but then you have to remember that 
there are still people out there who still can't program their own alarm 
clocks.  What can you do?

Try to (gently) educate them?

Give them a pre-programmed alarm clock like in George Orwell's 1984?!

And how about those whose current alarm clocks work just fine, and who
have no desire to learn to program a different one?
