In 1998 plans for SETI@home were announced. About 400.000 people pre-registered in the following year.
In May 1999 Windows and MAC version were released and within a week 200.000 people downloaded and installed the client.
In August 2002 SETI@home counted 3.91 million participants in 226 countries. Back then 50% of the users were from the USA and 71% described themselves as home users.
In the 12 months beginning July 2001 221 million work units were processed with an average throughput in that period of 27.35 Teraflops.
On the 25-Oct-2005, according to statistics of a http://www.boincsynergy.com/stats/index.php BOINC website] SETI@home (running on BOINC, not counting the classic client) had 232.420 users with 494.090 computers. There is still a migration from the classic client (as described here) to the new BOINC client going on. Therefor right now it is hard to determine the real number of users and the real computating power of SETI@home.
