Grid.org is a single destination site for large-scale research projects powered by the United Devices Global MetaProcessor. From the Cancer Research Project sponsored by Intel and the University of Oxford to the Anthrax Research Project sponsored by Intel and Microsoft, the Global MetaProcessor @ grid.org has been put to use for research and analysis projects of groundbreaking scope. With the participation of over 2 million devices worldwide, grid.org projects driven by the Global MetaProcessor have achieved record levels of speed and success in processing data.

How it works
The Global MetaProcessor @ grid.org is a virtual supercomputer that can be harnessed to power computational research and analysis projects on a massive scale. By combining millions of online CPUs worldwide to work on extremely large computational projects, problems can be solved more quickly and less expensively than by conventional methods. Now any networked computer can help fuel research and projects that previously may have required a bank of supercomputers or a hundred years to complete.

To myself and alot of other people this is way more important than running SETI@home. If you feel the same and want to help advance medical research please join our ieXbeta Team I have made: http://www.grid.org/services/teams/team.ht...30-8599AC876412
Anybody else up for making this a 10K member team and whooping other teams out there?
If you think it's a waste of time, well I hope you or any family don't get cancer.

I am so there. I already do United Devices and I'd love to join this team.

sure... no problem.
it indeed is closed to our lives than seti is. ;)
cancer runs in my family as well.
I actually tried UD once, but failed to register. did now too. had no problems. needed to take my e-mail "MeBrains" as a nickname though. Brains was accounted for... :>
edit: btw joined as well. nick does not show up yet though.
should soon.

'cause I was already an active member, so I just dropped my old, abandoned team from college and switched to the ieXbeta Team.

I'll be running this on my PC while I'm at school if the owner of the house allows.
