i joined the TeAm some time ago and with my little part time Pentium have racked up 830+ WU on Seti@Home for the TeAm. BOINC is very exciting because #1 it allows me to have my computing time split between two projects and #2 it likely will provide new data sets for SETI to crunch, not the same data over and over again.
up until now my computer has run only SETI@Home via the non-screen saver version with SETI Driver and SETI Spy. i would like to switch to BOINC because i feel the time has come that to do something other than SETI so i have switched to BOINC and have put 33% of computing with BOINC SETI and 66% with ClimatePrediction.net ... both with TeAM Anandtech.
am i doing the right thing? are we still make a final push for the TeAm with the classic SETI? i am just so tired of doing data sets from 2003 and earlier that i know SETI has computed 100's of times over. my understanding is BOINC will never recompute the same sets more than 3 times. what are the problems with BOINC right now? also will BOINC ever update their snap shot from March which indicated my classic SETI had 600+ WUs to my more current 800+?
thanks... who has made the switch?
