I still don't understand the hype.
The SETI@Home project is in no way affiliated with SETI, for starters.
Second, the data being analyzed represents an extremely thin band of
the spectrum, a pre-recorded sequence which is considered by many to be
of dubious value.
Except for the supposedly really cool screen saver, which *nix users
don't get anyway, you're better off giving your spare integer cycles to
that distributed primes effort. At least then you've got an outside
chance of becoming a footnote in somebodies math theory textbook, if
your computer finds one.
Yeah, I'm a killjoy. I just spent 4 hours making two copies of audio
CD's and various gold-tone coasters and it's 1:30am. Sorry.
