I've been a major part of many start-ups and over 300 research projects; programming across multiple platforms and getting everything to work like you need it to takes time, work, understanding and supportive feedback, not crybabies :cry: !
The Stanford group is working for human-kind, and has a long history of achievement; but none of those achievements were easy, none of them took place in a few months, none of them involved such complex calculations or were forced to operate across every known platform; there are still bugs in windows operating systems from Windows 95 to Windows XP, they have a highly paid staff of thousands working to screw it up worse; open systems such as Linux have been working for years to make a simple spreadsheet work interactively with graphics and word-processing; Unix, Win32, Solaris all have adaptive problems in distributed computing; so don't blame just Seti@Home, G@H or F@H for not living up to your standards at this time. Anyone can complain, but only a few good people will help find a solution for everyone involved. If you think you can help find the problems and offer positive feedback then :cheers: join the effort!
