Your personal background.
My name is Mike. I am a corporate trainer in the Chicago area, teaching classes on a proprietary hardware/software system used by contact centers. It runs on a big rack of dual processor/dual core Xeon servers, and many of them are idle a large part of the time, so I thought, why not put them to good use!

Age? 1/3. 1/3 of a lifetime, or so I could possibly hope. Soon I will be 33 1/3 years old. If I hit 100, this will have been the 1/3 mark. Boy will be really aggravated for a while in the afterlife if I get hit by a bus at 42.

I relax with video games (mostly XBOX) and an absurdly complex board game called Advanced Squad Leader . I have been married 8 years, and have two little girls, 2 and 5 years old.
Your opinions about Chess960@Home
I think these distributed processing projects are cool. I have been a chess fan for years, so having a chance to help that hobby is great. This application needs a cool graphical screensaver like SETI@home has. Just think - hundreds of board positions flying across the screen while the analysis is proceeding... awesome.
