What is said there seems to fit in with NERC\'s new stratgy: http://www.nerc.ac.uk/about/consult/strategy/documents/draft-strategy.pdf BOINC isn\'t mentioned in there but I wouldn\'t expect it to be. Plans would be a more appropriate place than strategy. Visit BOINC WIKI for help And join BOINC Synergy for all the news in one place. ID: 30486 · Reply Quote

And BOINC is only just starting to get to grips with 64 bit systems. For those that are interested, this is the Met Office page for their computers. Backups: Here ID: 30488 · Reply Quote
