SINC SAYS:
This yarn out of Mesa Arizona is pretty hard to believe.
The former director of IT for the school board installed software on the district school’s computers to search for life in space.
The board now claims it will cost a million bucks to remove it all.
I happen to be very familiar with the software, a tiny program that analyses data from the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) headquarters, collected by their radio telescopes. There are hundreds of thousands of computers around the world, cracking the data to assist in the search, mine included.
On a Mac computer like mine, it takes all of a few seconds to get rid of the software. There is nothing sinister about it.
Obviously the PC computer type who quoted the school board that figure must be the king of gougers.
Or is he?
