Just a heads up for this alpha project

About MilkyWay@home
Milkyway@home is a research project that uses Internet-connected computers to do research in modeling and determining the evolution of the Milkyway galaxy.

Project url is http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/

The WUs are small, under 10 mins a go and worth 2 points, occasionally 4 and set to get longer WUs soon.

Our team is rated 20 in the world with 3 members .. so come join!

Chocolate is mentioned twice so must be worth a nibble :P

Discussion forum has some intering points discussion
