Hi!

I have two quite fast Linux machines, which are mainly just idling. So I
thought I could join a distributed network project and let them do
something more useful than heating the server room.

Anyhow, I think Seti is quite senseless, and distributed.net is just
trying to break some cryptography keys, which is also not quite
interesting IMHO. Isn't there a Linux client available for something
REALLY useful, like e.g. for finding a cure against aids or cancer?

Regards
