RE: One of my BOINC rigs

in #gridcoin7 years ago (edited)

Normally I would be 1rst to say " TOS " both Boinc and University but you are the first person in my 1.5yr to do it right and I want to applaud and congratulate you! We have had users in the past take advantage of their roll as head of IT for Universities along with students Boincing up campus machines but you sir , are lucky to have a club let alone you did not use a private federal fund to finance the latest and greatest xeon system , not the highest end GPU and I hope your post opens up others to start clubs at their universities along with sorry have to promote HAM RADIO too , but more need to follow in your footsteps. I assume you have joined us team Gridcoin and setup www.gridcoin.us or https://github.com/gridcoin/Gridcoin-Research so you can earn some $$$ GRC and its worth sitting on for some upgrades to that setup! I am locate next to rosetta@home and have a buncha 1u older machines and other hardware to donate to any Science/Ham startup club! A++ and 2 Thumbs up I hope this encourages others to do the same.

Thank you for those very warm words. This computer most of the time was kinda doing nothing, so it was obvious for me to install BOINC there. I have joined team-gridcoin as well, you assumed correctly.

Actually the science club was already running when I enrolled to university, there was a vote for next club president, so somehow I was chosen. (I still have no idea how) If you are interested what we are duing during club meeting, don't hesitate to ask - I will explain what we are doing with pleasure!
