Hey,
I was just planing to install bionic on a new computer, and like for example any new user wold, i thought I could get a download link at the World Community Grid home page... Am I just blind or is there a link or description anywhere on the page? This might be a case that could be a big turnoff for new contributers... There should atleast be some kind big flashing download on the home page, or some other easy to find place! -Oggy |

Obviously, since you've been a member since Nov.2004 you have no reason to follow the front page "Join Today" link which will lead to a sign up and download page. Existing members have their My Grid page, where there is the Download again. Not many turned away with this approach... and those already using BOINC, not bionic, will only have to join WCG, acknowledge the T&C and skip the download, just attach BOINC to WCG to get running :D
