Notice how the work unit and CPU hours from the old project are displayed nicely with commas to break up rather large numbers? Well given I just started to give BOINC a try (also allowed me to get the 7,500 work unit milestone on the old project), I just noticed this.

With a number of 1,000 it isn't so bad, but when these numbers become rather largish, it won't be easy to see what the credits are. Comma seperating the number would help, especially when credits start exceeding a million or what not. Long strings of numbers don't tend to be most human readable...

I am quite sure that they eventually will change to add the comas and make long numbers more easily understood.

It is just a question of suggesting it to them and not just complaint.

When they read these messages I'm sure they will take the necessary steps to correct it.
