Recently
I decided to join the GIMPS project,
GIMPS is short for the "Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search".
This is an distributed computing project to find Mersenne
Primes.
I've contributed nine computers; servers and larger desktops, to the
project. The free program called mprime, will run on Linux
as well as most windows platforms, and utilises the spares
clock cycles of your machine. Follow my progress
here.
If your interested in Primes and Numbers then there is a great series
of programs available online from the BBC
Radio 4.
