I have decided to opt in to beta testing for now
----------------------------------------But what i was wondering is the stability of the beta projects i dont mind when a work unit fails or whatever but what i do not want is it crashing my computer... so asking the beta tester comunity ... is it likely that i will crash my computer.. if so i will opt out ... if not i will be happy to help test work units and hopefully get a sneek peek at whats comming up  |

Betas do allot but not heard of it crashing computer completely for a longer time... it should not be able to do that.

All this reading and now also having to follow the Beta Read only forum for test announcements. And some will not be announced for low profile.
----------------------------------------The Statistics page for beta tells if any are in circulation: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/stat/viewProject.do?projectShortName=beta Yesterday: Zero
