Default Distributed Computing for PCHF

So.... What do you think. Should we have distributed computer on pchf? I have been running the beta version of Folding@home GPU2 for my ATi Radeon 2600, and so far in the past 24 hours its completed 3 (3!!!) Work units. Currently running for Team Anandtech. Maybe we should start a team too. For those of you who dont know what Folding@home is....
Folding@home - Main

Comments and thoughts please.

BTW, this is my screen that i have setup when i am running folding when i am at school/asleep etc

Not a bad idea if enough people are interested. You see some people with mega cpu's in these types of clubs. Im a member of another forum where they have a whole forum dedicated to folding@home.

Well, I learned something today. As a result I just "joined" Folding@Home and will let one of my computers run it 24/7 @ 100% or blow it up.

Thanks for the heads-up AW_3_3..............

Any update on a PCHF team? I have just been reading all about it sounds like a good idea
