SETI@Home getting 100 meg pipe

[dmcowen674]

From Dr David Anderson - Director of SETI@Home today;

You're welcome to tell people about our 100 Mbps pipe.
We had a lengthy meeting this morning with the Campus Network Services
office, and it looks like it's all going to work, though it turns out
that want to charge us another $1K/month for using the link from
Berkeley to Palo Alto, where we connect to Cogent.
But that's still a lot less than $6K/month for 20Mbps on Qwest.

-- David

So hang in there everybody, as soon as they get the intermediate link to the Cogent.com POP, the project will be flowing smoothly.

That's great news!!!

Hopefully this will help avoid the release of a new slower client.
I can't wait for the details to come out!

 

[dmcowen674]

You're welcome Micron and all. Dr Anderson was willing and going to come to Atlanta to be an expert witness for me and the Technology, the least I could do is spread the word as best as I can to help the project and fellow Netizens.
