Re: Folding@Home

Except for the Advanced Scientific Cores, the Large WU's & the GPU (Radoen X1900/X1950) clients, every WU has the same point/CPU time ratio.

The large WU, Scientific Cores & GPU dependant cores have much higher system requirements than the standard cores, so you get bonus points.
Generally, these will require a $hitload of RAM & HD thrashing, which wears out your HD alot faster

Admitting that you've illegally downloaded movies/songs and need help to process/burn is comparable to robbing a bank, and walking into the bank the next day holding the bags of money to deposit them into your account.
Don't be surprised if people laugh at you when you make the headlines.
