Hi guys:
Bill and I read about this in Discover Magazine Page 26, August 2004 issue. Researchers that do not have the money to get on a Cray or some other very expensive computer are turning to this technology.  The thought is that 1 million home computers is just as good.  I signed into www.grid.org and when I am not using my computer it is now finding a way to help with put together a small pox grid.  It works like a screen saver and what better way to help the world than to donate time through your computer.  The one I have been working with is through the University of Oxford.
