UD and the like

[fatboyjim]

Just wondering how many people run things like United Devices (http://members.ud.com/download) It checks molecules against proteins involved in cancer, hopefully leading to a cure

Or that crap one Seti which checks about 1000000000000000th of the sky for Aliens, never having a hope in hell of finding anything because of the horrible radio interference


Sorry, slight bias towards living breathing humans surviving than ET Intelligence




Well...?

PS. Get UD and run it now!

I'm currently running Genome@home (http://genomeathome.stanford.edu/) 24/7 on 3 computers. And I agree, I like the projects with humanitarian goals, not looking for aliens. :p

I'm going to go ahead and move this into the Distributed Computing forum, as it will fit better there.

Ah good, glad somebody over here agrees with me. (Everybody on the UD forums certainly do :))

I'll take a look at this Genome project, maybe run it when the UD project finishes (Set to be April 2002 I think, unless it gets more funding or something)

Thanks again,
