This Sunday night, March 25, all PS3 users who want to help a good cause will turn on their systems and run the folding@home program. Anytime during Sunday is fine. But it would be best to turn it on before you go to bed and let it run all night.
The reason behind this you ask? To let Sony & Stanford University know that there project is being appreciated and that the PS3 community is willing to help out. Folding@Home attempts to understand diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and many forms of cancer among others. Folding@Home is a optional feature released with the next firmware update from sony.
So are you going to help out? I am

Background downloading is great! But why did the folding@home download not work in the background?
Tosh, were you going to set up a folding@home team for this site?

I set up my own team for a GTA fansite I’m a staff member of, and will take place in it as well. Im going to be running mine from Saturday night through, at least, 4:30PM on Sunday. I still gotta make a team logo for ours though lol (we’re 55084). I really would like to see the progress when i get home from work sunday night
