Team Art Of Geek, doing our part for Folding@Home
Just wanted to let all of you know that Art Of Geek has an official Folding@Home team! Just enter the below team number into your Folding@Home client’s settings on your PS3, Mac or PC and you’ll be able to contribute to Team Art Of Geek’s ranking while helping the geeks at Stanford study protein folding and misfolding to enable the scientific community to better understand the development of and research cures for Alzheimer’s disease, BSE (mad cow disease), cancer, Huntington’s Disease, Cystic Fibrosis and other aggregation related diseases.

You can view our team’s progress on the F@H Team Art Of Geek page.
If you’re not already folding, what are you waiting for? It’s a good cause, and costs you next to nothing, if not nothing, depending on whether you pay your electricity bill. You can learn more about the Folding@Home project from this Wikipedia article, or the official Folding@Home project website.
F@H clients are available for Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP/Vista, Linux x86 (32 and 64-bit) and Mac OS X (PPC and Intel) and can be downloaded from the project download page. Of course if you own a PS3, you’ve already got the most powerful F@H client available built-in, just look in the Network menu of the XMB (Xross Media Bar) interface.
For those who participate, whether on Team Art Of Geek, or other team of your choice, thanks for contributing!
