Your opinions about Einstein@Home
Most computers are idle most of the time and since electricity is expensive in Thailand and may become more so after privatisation it makes sense to do something useful with this money.
Before there was SETI and that was a good project.
Now we have BOINC which does many things.
Einstein is only one of them.
I do not really understand pulsars and black holes and am not all that much interested ib them but it is a good and useful project.
