Hi,
I was wondering what the credits are for. I looked around on the website and other forums but I didn't see anything. Maybe you can answer this question for me.
Than You,

Credits are a way for the project* to pay you back for the work your computer is doing.
They cannot be used for anything (as of yet), other than to brag with and showing off how good your computer is.

Wiki: Computation Credit.

* World Community Grid pays with Points. When you look in Your Grid you can see how many Points you have accumulated. Divide this number by 7 to get your amount of BOINC Credits.
