Use your PC idle time to help scientific research

[jeickal]

I thought some of you guys would be interested:

I found some scientific projects on the Net looking for CPU time.
Basically whenever you screen saver is on, your PC is barely using his CPU. You could then share your CPU power with thousands of other PC like yours to build some sort of virtual supercomputer that can be use for scientific research.

Check this out ==> http://boinc.berkeley.edu/

In this forum, we share our knowledge to help each other out. Why not sharing a little of our CPU time when we're not using it?
