I've been running Boinc for several years now and just found out about this forum.
In about a month I'll have a million credits.
I'm a retired computer engineer. Started in 1966 with Univac, having just left the military.
I volunteer to teach seniors how to use their computers,e-mails ,etc.
My account name is 'Doug' in the list of users of Einstein.
I'd like to get more computers running for me if I can. Just 3 running at the moment.

Welcome to the forums! A million credits is a great milestone. Are you running any projects other than Einstein at the moment?

Welcome here!

I think volunteering is really nice, the elders need to get online and they need people to help them do so! I had a aunt who tried Internet and that was very fun for her!
