Personal background |
My name is Michael O'Neill, I am 17 and currently reside in Swansea - Wales
I am currently studying for my A-Levels in Olchfa Comprehensive school (Sixth Form), I decided against going to college for my A-Levels as I find it easy to learn in a comfortable environment (like my own school =]).
My hobbies/interests include:
-Creating various forms of digital art in Adobe Photoshop CS3
-Browsing furry forums/art sites
-Watching debates/documentaries regarding atheism/the cosmos
-Sketching furry art (only on occasion) |
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
A friend on a furry forum posted a thread about distributed computing, and mentioned SETI@home within the thread.
I followed the links he provided and pretty soon I had everything set up. I was eager to try out distributed computing as my PC had recently been upgraded to a quad core processor, testing it out with SETI@home seemed like a good idea =]
I soon found out that my new Nvidia 8800GS could help with the processing, by this time I was beginning to realise how well my computer would help with scientific research, I fully support all forms of science, and lending my computer's processing power to aid it was a very appealing idea.
I now have BOINC running almost all day now and it fills me with joy to know that I am hlping in what little way I can, to aid the advancement of society. |
