Personal background
30 year old bioinformatics geek in Oxford. Linux advocate.

I work for an environmental agency in the UK, working as part of a dedicated scientific data centre for biologists across the UK.

A rough overview of my seti setup.

1xSparc 450 with 4Gb RAM and 4 CPU's
1xAMD Athlon 2400 with 640Mb RAM and 1 CPU
1xP4 1.8GHz with 1Gb RAM and 1 CPU
1xP4 1.8GHz with 512Mb RAM and 1 CPU
2xP3 1GHz with 256Mb RAM and 1 CPU
6xXeon 2.4GHz with 1Gb RAM and 2CPU's

thats a total of : 21 CPU's crunching 24 hours a day
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I love the seti@home project - I think there's nothing more fun than crunching these units for a one in billion chance something is found. If it ever succeeds the name of this project, and all those who contributed goes down in history for as long as the human race lasts. And I think if we knew something was out there, we might do things a little differently in this world today.
