I used to post here a few years back and have recently
re-subscribed. However, I see no posts in the last few days...

With the advent of the BOINC architecture, virtually all activity
has apparently migrated to forums. This group sees probably less
than 10 posts per month these days.

I still monitor the group, but rarely have anything to post about
any more.  Since I have no interest in getting involved with BOINC,
I abandoned SETI@Home when SETI Classic was shut down.

Ahh, Ok. I think I remember you from 'back in the day'. I resisted BOINC for 
as long as I could, grimly hanging on to classic (and the 3.03 exe) until 
the last moment.

However, I just thought I'd give it a whirl as I have a new PC and I founded 
a team that still has 40 members (although only a handful are still active). 
These Core2 Duos are amazing after upgrading from an Athlon XP.

(Wondering why I didn't see Gary's post first. Perhaps it's a propogation 
thing although it's been a while now...)
