I took the liberty of making a Plime group for Folding@home. The team # is 95655. Read up on it here if you've never heard of it before.

If you have the bandwidth and enough processing power and aren't using them, please consider running this in the background. I used to run this all the time on my computer but seem to have forgotten about it until just the other day.

Edit: Here's the team page.

Not unlike SETI@home, I neither have bandwidth or computing power... My computer doesn't either.
Cool idea though.

Yeah, they're the same exact concept but one's for medical research and the other one focuses on space research.

I've been folding for aboot 2 1/2 months and I seriously thought aboot setting up a plime team, but I thought it should be run past jax first. I guess Apex decided to go above and beyond. I'm already part of a different team (57353). It really is a great feeling to know that you can do alot to help withoot doing anything really. I hope everyone takes part in this!

You have taken well. I would think that a single glance at the news stories that I have submitted would answer that silly question in a heart beat. lol : P

*Note: I also have F@H running on my laptop at work and also my home PC.

Very nice. I used to run it all the time on my computer but when I installed the new OS I forgot to install F@h. I got a PS3 the other day and F@h can be installed, so naturally I started using it again.

On a side note; have you played Gran Turismo HD yet? Soooo much fun!

If only you knew me better, you would realize how silly that question is. lol I have played the bajesus oot of it! I have been in the top 5 six times, top 10 fifteen times and 1 of those times I got 2nd place. I usually don't gloat, but I am pretty damn good at racing games (especially Gran Turismo) and it is the only thing I brag aboot. Nobody will play me anymore. I actually prefer to race the CPU. Everybody get's so frustrated when I beat them with a lesser car.

Awesome! I used to be good at GT3 and haven't played much GT4 after I misplaced the disc and now can't find it. :( Let me know if you need someone to play against when Prologue or GT5 comes out.

Also, I'm kicking myself for missing the free download of the Prologue demo on the Japanese store by one day. Grrrr.

Slip your hand into 2 top corners of the sheet.
With one hand inside each of the top 2 corners, fold the sheet (right sides together). Slip each of the top corners into one of the bottom corners.
Lay sheet on bed or table. Arrange and fold the corners neatly. Turn in selvage edges enough to make 4 straight sides.
Fold in half, then in half again. (All four corners will be stacked together, and sheet will be in a long strip.
Then fold the long strip in half, then in half (or thirds, depending on the size of the sheet) again to make a square.
Sheet should be a compact, neat square.
Smooth and place on shelf.

I couldn't find it anywhere. I didn't even realize that it could be downloaded onto North American systems?

Yup, you just need to make a Japanese account and you're good to go (PS3 games don't have the region restrictions), but they pulled the demo on the 30th because they're going to release Prologue in stores this month. We won't get Prologue until February.

I added a link to the team stats page to my initial post. I guess so far I'm the only one on there.
