Best short term project for Boinc in Windows.
I'm getting ready to do my taxes with TurboTax. Since TurboTax seems to be going out of their way to make sure it won't work with Wine in Linux, I need to boot into the micro-Windows install I have specifically for that purpose. While I'm doing my taxes, I have no idea how long that will take, I would like to crunch something in windows with short tasks.
Anyone have any quick suggestions? I plan on starting within a couple of hours.

SIMAP, pretty good credits and they only last about an hour.

CAS's WUs aren't too long, and would help you get another Trigggl. AlmereGrid's last for about 20 minutes.

I am already working on CAS, so it's not a bad idea. I was also looking at Spinhenge, since they look really short, really bad credits, though. I'll probably want to concentrate with 2 dual cores when I go after that one.
Looks like I'll do CAS. I already have 10k in SIMAP. Not a bad suggestion, though.

Well, the point is moot. My windows install no longer works and hosed my boot sector. I'm just now getting back into my normal OS after figuring out I had to fdisk my sda1 partition to change it back to linux. grub couldn't figure out what to do with it until I fixed that.
To make a long, frustrating technical story short, nevermind this entire thread.

Chess 960 if you can get work.
