I have a new idea here.
It seems that a lot of F@H contributors have a lot of computers laying around in their home doing just F@A work.
Occurs to me that, those computer can be better utilized, such as donating to someone who needs a computer to do basic internet and write papers.

It would be beneficial, if those of us that have the computers, are willing to donate to those in need. In return, those individuals who need the computer, must do their best to keep the computer on 24/7 to crunch for Distributed Computing, and preferably using the username of the donor. The idea is somewhat similar to "Adopt a rig", only that I am talking about computers based on recent technology, such as the Core 2 Duo/Quads.

At this moment, I have several computers doing just F@H or BOINC. I am willing to give out these computers to those that have a use for it, but must run the Distributed Computing program under my username.

I know that electricity would add up, but it doesn't really matter to those that would leave their computer on all the time. In addition, I am talking about the new Core 2 Duo CPUs, which is a whole lot more efficient than the Pentium 4 era.

This program would be especially suitable for those going to college or going to live in dorms where electricity is covered.

Some of the Rule's I've come up with are:
1. The donor or receiver decides who pays for shipping to the receiver. Preferably the receiver should pay.
2. The receiver must do his/her best to keep the machine on 24/7, running the distributed computing program as specified by the donor. The donor can ask the receiver to run the Distributed computing client under the donor's name.
3. The computer can be used for internet, basic word processing, etc. If the receiver is going to run "CPU intensive" tasks, it must be limited to only few hours a day, as these computers are suppose to run for Distributed computing projects.
4. Poor college students should receive priority, as well as non-profit organizations who are helping out for other causes.

Please give me any feedbacks, suggestions, and what to add to the rules.

To the moderators: If this is a good idea, please add it as a STICKY.
