The one I have in mind is a 4 way (Xeon MP) system with each of the processors sporting Quad core as a minimum! Then I will rock! Until then I will continue winning in small increments!

LOL I wish my IT people here at work would let me put BOINC on all the computers, having it set to only do work when not in use, but since its our dispatching terminals, the CAD software is a resource hog, and we can't have any delays. So, that got shot down, otherwise I could have added another 16 computers to crunch with. Fairly nice ones too. LOL Oh well. ID: 529677 ·

Voice Recogntion software. The Quad has 4 Gig of RAM, and can take up to 64.

P4, Quad core - I'm already glad to have a Athlon 3000+ desktop - This was almost more than I could afford! My laptop is a second-hand P2 with almost 700MHz...

That would allow your CAD system to work, and leave enough for BOINC LOL Well, about 6 months ago, or so, our IT people put in a brand new IBM server, I don't have any spec's on it though. Very nice too. All of our desktop computers are Dell Precision Workstations 650. On the system info thing it says its a x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 7 GenuineIntel running @ 2.658Ghz, with 512MB of RAM. Doesn't say much about the computer other than that. But, I would have no doubts that they would run SETI just fine in the background, and with setting BOINC to run only when the computer is not in use, it would be ok. Heck, most of our computers just sit here doing absolutely nothing, as they are spare terminals for special events that go one throughout the year. A big waste of CPU's...... :-( ID: 529689 ·

The first time a fire engine, polce car, or ambulance gets there late and somebody dies, the press would have a field day if they thought the delay was due to you guys running SETI.
