    Magnetism@Home

    Another new project starting up. This one is actually allowing people to join, can you believe it?!

    Vaughan, I've formed the team page and will switch 'Founder' over to you.

    Woot ... I joined eventually. Initiate transfer resulted in an Unhandled exception error.

    I bestow upon thee, the "Great Sword of Foundership"!

    Gotta be careful of the workunits from this one. They require 768MB RAM per, and on a Q6600 with only 2GB, BOINCing will be all you do on the computer.

    Thankfully, they've uploaded new workunits that don't require as much RAM. The 24 hour deadline is a problem, though.

    Here is some info from my crunching.

    500 wu per day per cpu.
    Each wu runs ~16 minutes on an X2 @2.6 ghz
    About 4.4 pts per wu.
    Logic is the art of being wrong with confidence.
