    for the last 24 hours my computer has had no work to do from Malariacontrol.net?

    Is there a problem at my end or are there no work units for Mac/Intel computers?

        There is no application for MacOS on PPC avialable, only for MacOS on Intel. So your PPC Mac did never get work.

          I used to get plenty of work from the malariacontrol.net server on my non-Intel-capable Mac G5. Now all I get are \"there is no work for your type of computer\" or \"communication deferred\" messages. The only difference is that I recently installed an additional 2G if RAM. Could doing that contribute to this continuing problem?

            Surprise! I just looked at the platforms supported by the malariacontrol.net sever. Apparently the project has decided not to include Mac OSX, which is a shame. Thus, I will detach from this program immediately. I would give you a fond farewell if I understood why you took this action. But oh well, c\'est la vie.

              Please look at my posting from 12th March in this thread. MalariaControll supports only MacOS on Intel. At the applications page (http://www.malariacontrol.net/apps.php) is MacOS Intel listed for seveal MalariaControl applications.

              MacOS PPC is not supported, because MalariaControl uses a compiler which is not available on MacOS PPC. If they would use a other compiler, the results are different, but they need simliar results.
