If you are currently running any BOINC CUDA projects (not just PrimeGrid) on an Nvidia GPU we recommend that you do NOT UPGRADE to OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) at this time. According to the BOINC Wiki (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Release_Notes#Nvidia_CUDA_support_broken_on_OS_X_1 0.9_.28Mavericks.29), the Nvidia CUDA driver is broken. After ugrading to OS X 10.9, you will likely be unable to run any BOINC CUDA tasks until Nvidia fixes the driver. There's an ongoing discussion located here (http://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.php?id=5339).

Slightly off topic, but if you're a member of the MacRumors forum, your account info may have been stolen by a hacker.


The Mac and iOS-based news site MacRumors confirmed this week that their forums were attacked by hackers, with 860,000 usernames and passwords being stolen.

The culprit must have been a M$ programmer.

Nah. They wouldn't have succeeded then. I'm sure the site isn't running SilverLight. :))
