I think it is non-profit...
The World Community Grid is strictly a philanthropic project currently funded by IBM. The research results will be made freely available to the world.

"IBM's values state that we are committed to providing innovation that matters for our company and for the world. There is no better way for us to live those values than to join the World Computing Grid," said Stanley S. Litow, vice president of IBM Corporate Community Relations and president of the IBM International Foundation.
"We're taking IBM's innovative on demand grid technology - the same technology we share with customers - and applying it to humanitarian issues about which the world cares. We look forward to working with our employees, customers and the public to execute this exciting vision."
There was a weekend "Masterminds" program on Court TV...one of the episodes was about Carl Gugasian "The Friday Bank Robber"...I did a search "carl gugasian friday bank robber Court TV" on both Google and Yahoo...Google results did not pick the Court TV episode...I was trying to look for the details of the episode...Yahoo nailed the Court TV result...see for urself by searching the following terms on both Google and Yahoo: carl gugasian friday bank robber Court TV

focus on making money has distracted Google from providing "true" and "unbiased" search...it is getting sicker by day!!
i am looking for a "real" search engine
Awesome response...the original post was BS...I just downloaded the toolbar and it rocks!! In general, I don't like Microsoft...but give them some credit for coming up with a nice Desktop search...this one works for me...I tried Google Search but it conflicted with some other software on my computer and won't install.
Anonymous Coward, don't get all piffy...just fyi..I did Master's Thesis entitled "Application of Metal Nanocrystals for Low Power Nonvolatile Memory Device"
MiniDV can store upto 25GB of data...Microdrives are coming up with storage as high at 60GB already in commercial space(for e.g. iPOD Photo)...You had to carry 4 miniDVs...the advantage is obvious...you will have to carry only a one Microdrive. I think it is a matter of 1-2 years when HD based products will become practical and popular.
This certainly looks to be a begining of a trend...wait till Apple comes up with a hip looking camcorder and HD based camcorders will become the trend...remember iPOD.
Slashdot Mirror
No way to categorize...
Post it - focus on story not the submitter!!
infested with pop ups and are known for spyware
they are asking for "donation" of CPU time (so to say)...hope that explains not paying part of the game.
I don't care...the "value" of this research is much higher than the "cost" of the DSL problem.

I stand corrected. Agree with the 4 GB microdrive statement of yours.

Great point! Laws must change!!
Hmm...I am wondering why we have computers based on HD instead of old tape based Spectrum storage system. Also, why did tape based music die?
