    Interesting!
    They have actually posted the software on the internet. It's in San Fransico! Anybody going?

    We should make a bit-tech supercomputer. That would rule.

    I'm already folding on the BT team. An actuall flashmob computer would be cool to try and I'd wanna participate but probably wouldn't be able to as most BT members are in European countries. Hell, I can't even make it to San Fran. for FM1

    I used to fold for the bit-tech grid.org team, but got bored being #1 and moved on to greener pastures. I'm now participating in find-a-drug.org :thumb:

    Sounds like an interesting idea, I wish them nothing but success :cooldude:

    Imagine if they ported it to PPC and palm platforms, and used 802.11b/g for communication as well as lan, it would be easier to gain a larger crowd..

    True, but ppcs are rather wimpy compared to their desktop counterparts, and most palms are just as bad, if not a lot worse :p
