I am the head of the Mathematics department in St. Patrick's College, Drumcondra, Dublin 9, IRELAND. I use a Pentium (1700MHz). My interests are Mathematics (of course!), my family and friends, books (all sorts ... literature, biography, music, history, ...), music (especially Indian classical music (I have over 400 L.P. or CD recordings - my favourites are the sitarist Nikhil Banerjee and the sarodist Ali Akbar Khan). In July 1999 - using Yves Gallot's Proth program - I found a new largest composite Fermat number F(382447) (details at my web site), and in February/March 2003 - using Paul Jobling's newpgen, George Woltman's PRP, and Yves Gallot's Proth - I found a new larger one: F(2145353)
