Wait a minute - a group of FReepers are already doing this - dangnabbit - Sony just wants to beat us to the #1 spot!!! Who has the Folding ping list???

(one side note, since this would be on playstations, the DUmmies will probably claim that gamers are obviously ALL flaming libs, so they should be able to claim all of Sony's points for the DUmp - that would be the ONLY way they could ever pass us in the folding standings)

Pinging everyone on all my lists.

Folding at Home is a serious project and worthy of your consideration. Please see this thread for a good description and think about joining the FReeper team.  (Beating the DUmmies is an added bonus)

If you're already folding, please ping any lists you have to this thread.   Thanks for helping.

Video game ping!

If you want on or off this list, Freepmail me


The cell's abilities are being vastly overblown. Other Multi-core processors are already being produced by both Intel and AMD. I've seen a lot of hype for the cell, but little else.

I have no idea what this is about. I have only one phone line and a dialup connection, as nothing else is available in our rural area without a $500 installation fee for wireless. Can my computer be of any help in the program?

I think that PS3 will be a big hit when it debuts in November. It will also make an impact in the world of distributed computing, such as Folding@Home.

FR has had a folding team for about 2 1/2 years and it really grew starting last November. We have leapfrogged up to #70 in the world. Please join us if you desire; it really is for a good cause. We will provide all the help you will need to get started.

Many geeks will grab a PS3 if the games are good, and the technology has the potential to be revolutionary.

I may have found a replacement for my Nintendo 16, if the budget committee approves.
