SETI@Home logo

The Linux server (Doofus) here on hrpr.com's local network has been contributing spare CPU cycles to the SETI@Home Project since March 2003.  Since then Doofus has been faithfully processing signal analysis tasks 24 x 7.  Who knows, maybe one of these days SETI@Home will assign a task to Doofus that decodes to "ET Phone Home."

Note: In July 2009, another Linux server (Gunston) joined Doofus in contributing spare spare CPU cycles to SETI@Home.
