Well really, it's the actual processor that does most of the work, that is a mass of transistors, and they consist simply of masses of p-n junctions without any moving parts it'll far outlast you... maybe [img]smile.gif[/img]

As for the program, no thanks, i am using SETI and have been for a while now, i have contributed 1025 hours now and completed 252 data units, so i think i'll stick with that, i like the idea of distributed processing, so glad to hear there are more of these projects going.

Also, if you consider this a pm, could you send me some information as you mentioned above?
ok ok, i'll send a pm, i was just being lazy
[/QUOTE]interesting i heard about SETI from the news. some australian bloke was in the news for having his computer on for the whole year i think. contributed countless hours on his computer [img]smile.gif[/img]
