Thanks for the help. Now to install.

1) Quit BOINC

2) Download the application

3) Extract the files from the download, and copy them into

/Library/Application Support/BOINC Data/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu

Answer "yes" if it asks if you want to replace.

4) Restart BOINC

Thanks, now to watch the RAC.

Cheers, T.

Will Alex's optimized OSX apps work on the Mac Pro?

Yep. Use the C2D version....and watch your RAC sky rocket!

Thanks, so far I can only find Alex's G4 and G5 apps via this site.

It's about what I'd expect using the stock app, yes.

zombie67 is using an optimized app for his T7600 iMac, that's why he can pull such a high RAC (he's using Alex Kan's excellent OSX optimized apps).

HTH,
Simon.
