As of this post 1186 say one of their reasons is the nice screensavers but only 852 use the screensaver.


Maybe they`ve uninstall it in the meanwhile. :)

I`m not a ``screen-saver-fan`` either, it`s silly as a reason to use BOINC.


I think it would be great if everyone in the world started to use SETI as a "pretty screen saver". Whatever it takes to get the science done.


I like all the time 2 know what I`m doin`. And the ``coloured-box`` it`s not a temptation 4 me 2 open it, if I don`t inform miself about what is inside. But U have a point 2, I only have serious doubts that someone begin to use BOINC only `cause the ss looks cute, whitout knowing (or finding out after) what is really this lovely project doin. But...never know. Mistery is all over us. :)

Yup, I`ve voted in this Poll too. Only 12 romanians had read about this Poll so far? Hmmm :(

I`m not a ``screen-saver-fan`` either, it`s silly as a reason to use BOINC. But how my previous users mentioned in their posts, U can choose as a matter a fact ALL those choices, so it`s only one of the reasons.

I expect also questions like: ``Does your BOSS knows that UR using BOINC on the work computer?`` :)
