Personal background
Born 100 years after uncle Albert and Live in Greece, Athens.

Currently employed as a software developer for a company with branches all over Greece on various programming languages and fields. Also web sites developer programmer in different fields in the past.

Studied at Physics Department, Astrophysics at Univercity of Athens (haven't finished that yet) and my biggest loves are Computers and Astrophysics.

Participate in (Classic) SETI@Home since 1999 and among the first users actually and never stopped crunching since then!

SETI and my Yahoo mail are the first two things I did when going on-line from my first laptop (at home) a Celeron/300 MHz and now with almost 10 PC's I go on faster and faster.

PS: Also i'm the guy that translated the SETI/BOINC pages and Client in greek.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1. Why do you run SETI@home?

To broaded humanity's understanding of the universe and to better ourselves. That's why I participate on more than one project too.

2. What are your views about the project?

It's going nice and aside some technical difficulties with the exponential growth of user base it'll be a great success (I hope)! Or at least to be a great successor for a great father (Classic)

3. Any suggestions?

To have more optimised clients for each CPU on Windows (AMD, Intel Pentium 4, Dual Core etc etc) and the fix the hyperthreading so processes won't change logical CPU!
