It's not really a gimmick, but the PS3 isn't really going to find the cure to cancer either. F@H allows researchers to understand the process of protein folding because diseases such as Alzheimer's or certain types of cancer is a result of protein misfolding.

I don't think that they say the whole truth about CPU power.

No, I don't think it's possible to play games whilst folding.

I think the term 'unused' means when the PS3 is not being used for anything else at all, in other words, when it's idle.

hmmm....
How dare you deny the power. One day you will all realize what reality is as a whole. Accept these things as true and allow me to simulate life as we know it.

:P
sony would do things like that but this project has been going for years. my pc has been doing it for long time. companys get alot of publicity out of it because they get mentioned when a cure is found which some have.

the project dosnt make a cure like people have said it just enables them to see how not to do it and how it could be done... then they try it then once in a while they get something right and it leads to better things

ps3 is dominating it at the moment. PC widows has been doing it since 2000 and ps3 is catching up like crazy its scary how fast it is just for say 8 hours a day its crazy speeds

just add another note about the guy that said about his name didnt appear on the list, after you completed a WU (Work Unit) it will get uploaded within 3 hours, 3 hours is the upload timescales so if you check back in 3 hours your name WILL be there
