Do any of the 'cancer research or similar' distributed processing projects
have clients for Linux yet (or Solaris, for that matter)? Last time I
looked, it was rc5 or seti - neither of which are particularly 'benefit of
humanity' type things, IMHO, in the sense that rc5 is proving a point, and
seti is searching for something which may not be there...
