56-bit symmetrical encryption has the final bullet put through it when Distributed.net completes the CSC challenge in 62 days, checking virtually every key in the process. It was only after the constant and repeated breaking of 56-bit ciphers that higher grade encryption was finally approved for export outside of the United States.

Although the historical stats were not kept, Team AnandTech placed in the top 10; at number 7 specifically if I remember correctly.
 
2000 is also the 1st. year anniversary of SETI@home. :beer:

Folding@Home 1 is released, the AFAIK 1st. biology or medicine-project.

Not so nice news is, this is also the AFAIK 1st. cheating-scandal in DC, then a couple users "helps" 1st. Ars Technica and afterwards another team to #1 in SETI@home. 🙁 But, atleast one positive thing compared to later cheaters are, the cheaters themselves tells they've been cheating...


Oh, and I started SETI@home 22. January 2000....

 
Good job on digging up those old threads btw 🙂, I've tried in the past (possibly distant past) with no luck, what's ya secret?😉
