I have run SETI for a while on various machines, many in computer labs and such. My workmachine has huge specs and just sits idly most of the time so I decided to put it to good use. SETI and other BOINC projects it is!!!
SETI@home and Astropulse are funded by grants from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and donations from SETI@home volunteers. AstroPulse is funded in part by the NSF through grant AST-0307956.
