We have reached #57 on the list of teams worldwide, FReepers are in the Top 1,000 of all folders and we are stomping the bejebers out of the DUmmies and Daily Kos.
A year ago we were just beginning to expand. Now we have about 170 regular contributors with nearly 1,050 computers using F@H as their screensaver.
Folding@Home makes a real difference in basic research into such diseases as Alheimer's, Parkinson's and BSE.
All it takes is a little free time to download the core, which runs in the background. Safe, clean and effective!
w00t!

Thanks, texas booster, for letting me help. my little WinME is running ~15k a year to the pot.
I've also found that if I shut down F@H before I reboot (updates, etc.) then I don't lose the points generated up to then. Power fails -- bye-bye!
Happy New Year, All.
you don't even know it is there, just sign up and put in the FR code and your off, helping science and humanity.
BTW, thanks to FReepers for pointing me to the fact that you can run F@H as a service rather than having to rely on a screen saver or running app. Multiple people use this computer, so the service makes a world of difference for keeping it crunching.
