    Does anyone here participate in the folding @ home project?

    http://fah-web.stanford.edu

    Just curious about your scores and stuff... Maybe we can set-up a Gr-FAH team?

    There also are several other projects with which you can contribute to science, do you participate in any other project?

    I live as a boarder. I don't want to risk the alienation of my landlords.
    I already recall them mentioning to themselves an increase in their electric bill and heard that the conclusion was that ti was due to me using my computer.

    I wonder how they'de handle me getting another graphics card, a quad and if i started volt modding...

    that and the fact that cell basically obsoletes x86 based folding.
