I'll post my findings when I've had time to test it for a while.
22) Message boards : BOINC Manager : 6.12.26 Mac BOINC as Service Broken

I run BOINC as a service on my PPC & Intel Macs using "Make_BOINC_Service.sh" script. After installing 6.12.26 on my Mac Pro running SL 10.6.7 the service became flaky. Sometimes it would be running when I logged in, sometimes it would not be running but would start after I logged in, and sometimes it wouldn't run and BOINCManager wouldn't be able to connect to boinc.

Reverting to 6.10.58 resolved the problem.

It's been a while now but when I used BAM in the past it used the very same device profiles, or venues, that BOINC uses. I just thought that since not everyone groups their crunchers based on where they are located it might be easier to group machines based on their CPU or OS since those factors have more impact on what projects can be run and how you want to allocate resources than location does. Allowing the user to name the profiles gives them more flexibility.

I would like to see the ability to name the machine profiles rather than being stuck with 'Default' 'Home' 'School' and 'Work.'

In my case all my crunchers are at home so if I need to create different profiles I have to try and remember which machines I assigned to which profiles. It would be much more helpful if I could name my profiles 'PPC Mac' 'Intel Mac' and 'x86-64 Linux.'
