Yes. Yoyo, DNETC, and Primaboinca run on it. And, you can get a PrimeGrid test project to run on it as well, though not through BOINC (you can get BOINC credits, though).

Anyone in the market for a big monitor?

I have had one for 2.5 years now and am still in love with it.

Here's a good one for any regular eBayers. Check your eBay messages for one titled "Earn 10% plus a bonus $5 in eBay Bucks". The deal is you have to download Internet Explorer 9 from the link in the message, set it up as directed and then use IE9 while making eBay purchases. When you do you will receive an extra 8% in eBay Bucks on top of the regular 2% offered by eBay. This promotion is for a limited time but it is worth it. After the promo is over you can DELETE IE9 and be done with it.

Note: If you already have IE9 then I suggest you uninstall it. Reboot and then DL from IE9 from the link.

Also, if you log into Ebay through Ebates, you will earn 1-4% cash back on all purchases. As well as with hundreds of other stores.

I heart Ebates. I just booked a hotel for a conference through Ebates and got 4% back on the hotel. Which makes for a happy Maxwell...
