Remember, it's RSA who awards the prize. It would be reasonable to say that genx.net will get the $10000 if their effort finds the key. If so, I read they will donate $9000 to charity, and $1000 to the winning host that found the key. I suppose it is then up to that person to spend the money as he or she sees fit. -- Brian Tao (BT300, taob@risc.org) "Though this be madness, yet there is method in't"
