I can recall being in Florida, USA in late May 1999, attending a computer in Melbourne (not far from Cape Canaveral) and seeing a demonstration of the original SETI@home application.....running on a Windows PC...and this is long before BOINC

I was enthralled at seeing the screensaver crunching real-world data, and promised myself I'd download the application and start crunching.
It's now 15 years later and SETI is 15 years old...
