Started with an iMac 350 and added several Mac 5500's some time after. They were running OS 8.6 and 9.0 at first. It took about 12 hrs to do a unit so I would dial up in the morning and in the evening to report each one until I finally got a program called SUM that worked much like BOINC does now. Now using Mac mini Intel machines plus some legacy hardware for various projects. Keep on BOINCing. Plus SETI Classic = 21,082 WUs ID: 1107931 ·

Just randomly noticed. 5.77 quintillion flops. Friend of mine and I bailed out on our previous team as we're both running 8 core beasts. We've got a team going now for 8 core or more people just started. I thought a few quadrillion was a lot for the team was a lot until I looked at my 12th Anniversary cert. Quintillions. Boggling.
