New non-BOINC application.

They are trying to use computers to forecast stock market changes. Not sure if it'll work as stock markets tend to go up and down on a whim!

I've just downloaded the application. Seems to use minimal bandwidth but not sure about CPU cycles yet. I might have downloaded the wrong version as the screensaver is not listed in my screensavers options nor can I find a manual screensaver configuration screen.

You check it out for yourself here. (Shame about the German advert pop-up - but most of the site is in good English.)

[Edit]

I wouldn't bother unless BOINC goes down! It seems to have REALLY slowed down the BOINC applications by a huge amount. I was doing Tanpaku's in around 30-40 minutes - now it seems they'll take around 3 hours! - It's coming off!

So at least I've saved you all the trouble of checking this out for yourselves! If you have a really slow computer that can't do BOINC it might be worth a try.
