Topic 196972

I see that Einstein is one of the few projects that still even advertises support for PowerPC processors running OS X. However, I've been attached to the project with my dual G5 for the better part of a year and have yet to receive any work for it. Shall I assume that support for this platform by your project has been discontinued? If so, please update your "Applications" page.

I'm sure this topic will include posts about PowerPC being old and useless, etc. but the computer is going to be used whether there are still BOINC projects that support it or not--I just figured that the unused portion of its computing resources could be doing something other than just being idle. After all, that's sort of the point of BOINC.
