New Scientist is running a short article on Berkeley's new DC software, BOINC. Here's a snippet:

But until now, it has only been possible to subscribe to one of these services at a time. So David Anderson, author of SETI@home, has created a new system that will make it possible to run several distributed computing projects on a single computer, and even let you specify what proportion of the computer's resources is donated to each project.


It's pretty light on details, but an interesting read as it shows how Berkeley's pitching BOINC to the world.
