Is there an interest it getting GPUgrid to work with Apple's new processors? They should be pretty powerful, and Apple is just getting started.

It doesn’t support CUDA, which is what all the apps here use.

Word on the street that opencl support is very poor on this chip also.

No one makes Metal apps.

All in all, it won’t happen. It’s DOA for BOINC computation.
