Hmm...the way most science grants work is that there isn't enough money to buy a whole mess of useless computers. Even though its Stanford and Dr. Pande probably has atleast a 2 million dollar grant for this project, its not enough. That money is spend on buying useful equipment such as DNA replicators, PCR machines, and paying for research students (yeah, we're treated like equipment). This is a cost effective way to process such algorithms because it harnesses the power of already present computers that have an internet connection. And do you have any idea how many P2 (or even P3) processors he'll need to do what Folding@home can accomplish? Millions of them. Well more like hundreds of thousands. This is a school that operates on government funds (which are being cut more and more), not Celera or Genentech (big corporations that work for profit). And I wouldn't want to start a 1emu team without atleast his go ahead. Him and Magnis own the 1emulation name. I mean, I wouldn't want some stupid Premium Member forum lacky to form a team on my behalf if I owned a webpage. But that's just me. GryphonKlaw I think we are fighting the losing battle....Some people just won't understand the importance of Folding@home.... Oh well....back to wasting time on the internet.....
