A new BOINC project CAS@Home, run by a Chinese University. There is a Knight team (Sir Al Dente). Only four members right now. The project also has work. So join away. We seem to be about 20th in the project overall.

How do you say Boinc in Chinese anyway? 
And wabbit, your signature will end up consuming the entire board

Here's a link: http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/
And description: | Quote: | About CAS@home
[June 2010] The objective of CAS@home is to encourage and assist scientists in China to adopt the technologies of volunteer computing and volunteer thinking for their research. The project has three parts:
* Organizing hands-on volunteer computing workshops for researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences as well as other scientific institutions in China.
* Launching pilot applications to exploit volunteer computing and volunteer thinking by scientists in China
* Creating a website with essential information about volunteer computing for Chinese scientists, which is this site
The project is led by researchers at the Computer Centre of the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
The project was officially launched in January 2010, with the support of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. A BOINC server was established at IHEP during the first quarter of 2010. A CAS@home master class with two international experts and over 20 participants was held at IHEP on 9 March 2010. In June, tests began of a volunteer computing project that will distribute Short-Cut Threading, an application about protein structure prediction developed by researchers at the Institute of Computing Technology, CAS. In July and August, researchers from IHEP and the international particle physics laboratory, CERN, will collaborate on developing a new volunteer computing application for simulating particle collisions at IHEP's particle accelerator, BEPC. |

It seems to have graphics and they look like genetic proteins from other genetic projects.

I finally was able to Join - Although I did have results when frrst I tried - Anyway, I'll do a few ever now and then
It's only on one PC here
Besides, I'd expect a lot of people are reluctant to help the Chinese with stuff...
