8,973 as of this evening. But to spare my CPUs, I’m not running it much any more, and I’m steadily falling down my group’s ranking. :¬(
Damn, boy–how many computers you got running it? (Or are you stealing time on a supercomputer somewhere?)
One main one at home these days. Used to be 3 or 4. But I have persuaded a few clients to use it on their PCs, too… :¬)
A few clients, eh? What a splendid idea! Think I’m gonna have to…err, borrow that idea.
Me, I want some of those new Apple G5 systems; they can blow through a seti@home work unit in less than six hours. 🙂
Best to ask first, but it works for me. :¬)
I’d love a G5 too, but I’d settle for fixing my 7300/166. I’ve spent hundreds on upgrading it to run OS X but it’s now too unstable to boot. :¬(
Major sux0rs. Especially since you can get a G3 or first-gen G4 machine on eBay cheap these days.
Apparently, the dual-processor G5 systems chew through a SETI@home work unit in less than four hours… 🙂 Now I want one even more!
<4h/unit: yeah, my dual 2GHz Athlon can, or close. And it was
