Hey, ins't it a cool thing after all? (Score 1)

This SETI@home-accelerator sound like really cool idea. I don't think it has any "real" use but as far as I know the SETI@home project really works quite well as it supposed to work and gives an unbelievable amount of free processing power to the project. This is the way SETI should be done, in my opinion. If you are interested, you can contribute and that's it. This piece of hardware is really interesting thing if you are enthusiast to the project. I don't think it's just taking stupid people's money. Sounds like a nice scientific toy made by some real computer science, Linux & SETI enthusiasts.

About the SETI program itself... Well, I'm not expecting any results really anyway. The way they search may really well be a wrong way and it has so many things why it might never give any results even if we were surrounded by (extraterrestial) intelligent life but I still think it's cool to anyway do this kind of project work. It's a good idea to try.

About this card again, I think it's really cool and funny thing even though it doesn't have so much real use. Of course, it's meant for people with enthusiast to this thing and some money. But even I am considering to buy one sometime. And I really don't have "extra money". We'll see...
