Need Justification For Purchasing A PS3? Look No Further
If you're having difficulty justifying the purchase of a PS3 to your significant other or parents, then HH is here to give you one more argument to help you out. Try taking the high ground and tell the other party that you will use the console to help fight cancer.
If they check your temperature or otherwise indicate that they might think you've lost your sanity, tell them that Stanford University's Folding@home team as found a way to make your PS3 very useful for helping scientists understand any number of cancers and even Alzheimer's.
"The PlayStation 3 will soon have the capability to connect to Stanford University's Folding@home program, a distributed computing project aimed at understanding protein folding, misfolding and related diseases."
Just remember that HH is Folding@home team 32407 if it works out.
