There's some new BOINC projects that you might want to join:

IMPORTANT: A reasonably powerful modern 64-bit computer with at least 4GB of memory is required to run ATLAS@Home. Enabling 64-bit virtualisation may require some changes in BIOS settings.

Greetings to the many users who have signed up to ATLAS@home in the last few days! Due to a technical hitch there is very little work available this weekend. We expect a lot more to come in on Monday.
116 WUs available according to the server and I've managed to download four and started running one. I'll see how it goes (11 hours left according to Boinc! )
EDIT:
Fractionally over two and a half hours on a i3 at 2.4 gig for 50 credits.

Hi Chris,
If it WAS him, you can be sure that the project would be on it's last legs, running out of money, making promises it can't keep and trying to keep his job even though everyone knows he's crap and only got the job in the first place because the majority of people wanted anyone BUT him to do it - it was just a shame that everyone couldn't agree on ONE alternative candidate
