Team Anandtech needs your help. We are part of the Distributed-Net RC5 (and others) competition. There is a prize of $1000 to the computer who finds the encryption key with RC5 encryption.
This basically works like SETI@HOME (Anandtech has a team there too), but we are in dire need of help with RC5. We are currently the #1 team in the world, but we are going to be caught very shortly if we do not have some SERIOUS help. The Dutch Power Cows are making MAJOR ground in catching up to us (they have approzimatly 1000 GHz more processing power then we currently have!!!), and with that much they are quickly closing the gap between us. It is expected that they will catch us in approximatly 35-40 days without major assistance from your part.
Please have a look at http://www.anandtech.com/rc5.html for more information. Any help is appriciated no matter how small the CPU or how little idle CPU clocks you have, we can use all the help we can get.
*To the Moderator I know this is not a Hot Deal in the classic sense, but it has the potential to be one, and its for Team Anandtech*
