Does your car detect Extraterrestrial Intelligence?

Yes, I've been driving my car's processor into the ground at times...

Bah, stop looking for aliens and start folding protiens to cure diseases.

My car (and entire network at home) genome

So that some biomed company can make millions of dollars off of my computer time? No thanks. I'd rather help find ET.

How do you send the data back and receive new data to process? Hath you wireless internet?

802.11 w/ access point in my apartment. I have to admit however, not all CPU hours are from my car...

Not a biomed company, standford. http://genomeathome.stanford.edu/

none of this seti or genome... it's all about the prime numbers.. http://www.mersenne.org/ I was 2 weeks late in finding a prime for winning a $5000 prise about 3 years ago. I don't see seti offering a 100k prise for finding et.. I bet they woudn't even give the individual computer that made the discovery any credit

So is anyone willing to start an mp3car SETI Group?

DashPC, I'd be willing to join and add my results if you change the name to mp3car!

Anyone else want to join?

ICe9: They would give credit, because they know who gets what packet of data.

I would be glad to join an MP3CAR thingy, just remember--you can't put these things on anybody's computer without permission or the FBI will come and get you (see TechTV->cybercrime)
