Haha, maybe not billionaires, but have you heard that Sony is considering commercial use the PS3?

Random companies would use our PS3s for research and whatnot in return for free games, etc.

Of course if this happened, Sony should make it that people have to do like at least 1 or 2 work units for medical research a week, if not not many people would continue folding for mankind, but for themselves!

The idea of giving away our "folded molecules" to commercial companies is simply atrocious. If Sony is caring more about earning profits rather than saving mankind then I am going to stop folding forever...not unless Sony gives me free games for each amount of folds!

But yeah, Sony should NOT allow commercial companies to take advantage its consumers.

Like I said, if it does go into commercial use, it should be made that you have to do as many Folding@Home work units as you do for other companies.

But it would be cool if Sony could give prizes to the most active folders in the world. Maybe an invite to the Home beta!

Maybe if Mr.PS3 is willing to, members on this site can win prizes for folding a lot. Of course we need to build up the team first... only 8 active CPUs.

a competition would be an awesome idea - prizes would be great! maybe based on monthly performance?

as for the Folding - it wouldn't be Sony you'd be stickin it up to, it'd be Stanford, which would be unfortunate... so to stick to Sony, you'd have to chuck your PS3 and cut up your game discs and record a youtube video about it! lol

When in Folding@Home, in the menu I think there should be the option to join a team under Identity. Our team number is 60766.

Can we please have some kind of reward system? It would really get people to do it. The ppl at myWii got some games to give away in competitions off Activision or someone.
Just an idea...
