Hi, I'd like to encourage all readers on the list with a reasonably regular connection to the internet to download and run the rc5v2 client from http://rc5.distributed.net/ (download the client at ftp://ftp.distributed.net/pub/rc5/v2.004/rc5v2b4-linux-x86.tar.gz)
The client runs with a nicelevel of 19, so it shouldn't disrupt the normal operation of your machine. There's a collective effort for Linux at http://www.linuxnet.org/ which is right now running second place overall, third place in today's stats only. I was hoping that by drawing in some readers of this list, we help could knock Apple off the top place. (That's right, Apple. I guess someone in Cupertino made it corporate policy to run the PPC client on every desktop... which would be disastrous for productivity given the tasking architecture of the MacOS ;) If you set your id to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' you contribute your idle processor cycles to the collective effort. (You can run it in the background as an ordinary user with 'exec rc5v2 &') Hope some of you join in, TL -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
