UK BOINC Team Forum

Hi all,

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...

I was in a Hotel in Johannesburg, on a Client visit,  when that started . I remember thinking .... "oh boy here we go - nightmare" ......

I couldn't have been more wrong rofl.

But ...... 15 years ..... terrifying, seems like yesterday.

I need to put up the 'ol Grim Reaper Defences rofl  :druid:

Wow - 15 years!

I can never remember when I started such things, but with the power of email archives I see that I got my SETI password in May 2001.

I also see that the links to my certificates for completing 250 and 500 work units no longer exist
