<a href="http://lhcathome.cern.ch">LHC@Home</a> has released a further 3000 user accounts, and a Linux client.

If you missed the previous cuts, or didn\'t sign up because no Linux version was available, now is a good time to crunch some particles!

&gt; But after seeing the meanies on the SETI board screeching
&gt; about how stupid it was to have mobile phone stats, I didn't really want to
&gt; take the credit! ;-)

I note that there's no reference to the mobile phone stats under 'your account' here.

The problem at SETI is that the project has suffered considerable disruption recently - the BOINC implementation has not been a happy one. The ill-feeling there was not aimed at Carl, but at the way the project <b>appears</b> to be run (I stress the word 'appears' deliberately). With the amount of frustration brewing, the announcement of something as peripheral as mobile phone stats gave rise to a feeling that the project management had its eye somewhere other than on the ball.

It is a sentiment I share, and have abandoned SETI now as a result of the disruption, and also as a result of the infighting.

On a personal note, Carl, I think you may have taken offence at some of my remarks in the SETI forums. None was intended to be aimed at you.

&gt;&gt;Don't worry about it Carl. :)

...seems to sum it up!
