Folding@Home with Google ...

I looks like google has also picked up on the helping humanity thing and decided to create their own self installer for F@H.
Looks like we might see some new competion coming up soon.

They call it Google Compute.

It appears as if it comes packaged with the Google Toolbar - that might slow them down...

They've been doing it for a while. That's what that "Google" team is, so use the installer and fold for Pimprig!

If anybody wants to donate a multiport KVM switch, I can have another 3 computers folding at a moment's notice, ranging from 2 ghz to just above a 486.

eh, I'm just joking, I'll get a shelf and some more monitors from the garage.
