Re: Device list

IBM is worldwide. Even the old WCG tech people weren't in the same location. They moved their hardware several times over the years.

IBM is HeadQuartered in New York.

You might be thinking of Dell.

BOINC was developed at UC Berkeley, California by the same folks that were running the original SETI@home project. They're both still there.

Re: Device list

I remember that Kevin was in Texas. And I have been here for many years having started with the old classic seti and the United devices before WCG.

The subdivision that Mike was refering to is in Austin, TX. The HQ is in Armonk, NY but that doesn't actually matter. That's only bean counters, not a technical office/campus....
