Thats pretty cool. I lost interest in SETI after the change from classic, I did not like the change in scoring and work units.

Really I pretty much stopped when I switched from Mac OS 9 to 10. It would always run in the background in 10. Which I did not want I only wanted SETI to run when the screen saver turned on. Once it was running in the background that meant it ran without 100% CPU usage thus screwing up my average CPU time per work unit.

I dedicate 7CPUS at 100% all the time in 10.5.5 (none of that background malarkey) ;) - I keep one CPU for OS and stuff and only shut Seti off when I need more horsepower
