I have 2 separate networks in my house, joined by a wireless bridge. When I want to see how "the downstairs" is doing, I open the Sidebar Computer Selection (I don't normally have it displayed) and choose what systems I wish to see as a group (using ctl key to choose). This led me to an idea.

Could this feature be user configurable to allow systems to be placed in group folders and additionally displaying group totals (i.e a separate line in the Tasks at the top)?

Grouping is already on the list, but I added yours to it.

No problem, the list isn't always that obvious.

To be sure, here is the V 1.14 with the group feature: http://www.efmer.eu/boinc/boinc_tasks/download_beta.html
