I'm a mac user, I have both Einstein@home and seti@home but I cant get them to run at the same time. the resourses are set equally 50/50. but when I update one, the other one is preempted. Any solution to this problem would be helpful. and once I do that, how do I decide which screen saver is running. maybe the projects switch back and forth only running one at a time, but I'm impatient and want answers. thanx

The applications will alternate ..... after some time you'll get overall 50/50 behaviour.
Cheers, Mike. :-)
