Wonderful results from the AP article. See all the stats.

Yes, it's awesome!

And what's more important, is the "word of mouth" and the multiplier effect (people telling friends, family etc) of this publicity.

I hope Rosetta's servers hardware and network link handles the spike in load, I've been noticing delays recently.

Perhaps the project could increase WU runtime (from 3 to 4-5 hr) and/or put specific instructions for dialup users on how to do so.

I already noticed this, and started a thread about it, as I thougt it maby was some sort of bug.

That's because alot of peeps are bailing out of Seti in droves. Einstein and Rosetta are obviously the main beneficiaries of Berkeley's "let them eat cake" mentality.
