Personal background
Im 23 ATM, living just out side Coventry UK.

I work for the Forensic Science Service (FSS) extracting, amplifying and analysing DNA samples that are to be loaded to the National DNA Database to help catch criminals.

I enjoy going to summer airshows (when the weather is nice), playing with my 10Month old son, Conor, and of course anything to do with computers.

A recent upgrade to my system (strictly for video editing not for SETI...ahem!) now means I'm running:

AMD Athlon XP 2600
1024 MB RAM
120 GB HDD
25 GB HDD
6.4 GB HDD
GF2 Ti 64 MB
CD-RW 52x24x52
DVD-ROM
SETIHIDE 1.5.4.4 (www.setihide.de)

This setup rocks SETI, gone from P3 600 ~10hrs per unit to ~2.5hrs per unit :o)
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
The age old iggnorance of humans to believe / kid ourselves that we are the only intelligent higher liforms to exist or ever existed.

I hope Begle 2 (launched 2003) a british design confirms life existed or could have existed on Mars.

I might as well use my Idle CPU cycles for something so why not help out the SETi guys!
