1) Message boards : Questions and problems : Dedicated machine for BOINC (Message 84563) Posted 27 Jan 2018 by fungel Post: I'm looking to contribute more to BOINC. To that end I'm wondering if you can buy a BOINC approved computer dedicated to running the software? Eg it's just a PC (no screen, no keyboard, no mouse...) but you would connect to it via bluetooth on an app to connect it to your wifi and choose the project you would like to support. It could run 24/7 with very low power usage. This would be an EPIC idea if it doesn't already exist. Is there anything on the market like it? If not then: a) would one of you techs suggest something as close to that goal as possible along with some sort of budget for purchasing something like it? b) suggest this to the BOINC team? I'd far rather support this type of collaborative computing rather than spend money on a charity where a CEO earns 250K! Any advice and recommendations you have would be very much appreciated :) Cheers, Kyle.
