I would be interested in some sharing if someone else in the UK wants one.

The two or more posters could be shipped as one shipment and then cheaply remailed in the same packaging at local rates. Note that foreign buyers are likely to get hit with some customs duties and handling charges from the courier for dealing this. Therefore I suspect two posters in the same (tube?) will only incur one admin charge on importing.

I think the discounted price is very reasonable for a piece of history. You can't really buy much for that price.

Probably less seconds than writing that posting... :wink:

I would be interested... my M41 poster is getting a little old. :D

Hm, if PerfSci would be willing to ship one of those watchmaker's loupes with the order as well, I'd like one of those. The $3 magnifying glasses from Staples just aren't up to the task of making the numbers readable. :wink:

Okay, do you have any idea if they would be willing to give the same offer with the discovery of the first 10,000,000 digit prime- which if you google is expected to be found May of this year (which doesn't mean that it will, heck, it could be 3 years). If so, a poster of the first 10million digit prime would be worth a lot more historical value than the 9million digit prime. I would definately be interesting in purchasing a poster of the 10million digit prime for half price- w/ or w/out the watchmaker's loupe. Anyway, just food for thought. Let me know what you think.

I would but I think the shipping to Denmark is pretty high?

Yeah, that's the site Tony.

Which has more results being turned in, primes with less than 10M digits, or primes with more?

Look [url=http://mersenne.org/primenet/]here[/url]. There are far more tests under 10 million both checked out and recently cleared.

Primeinator 2006-01-23 22:16

Interesting...I myself am currently testing a 10+ million digit number although it takes around 5 to 6 weeks per exponent on my PC. Part of the reason that more people are testing smaller numbers is that for the average computer, it is not the default to trail test 10 million digit primes. *crossing fingers to find the first 10mill prime*
