First the bad news. My gf's computer habits have shifted from Snood (great for folding) to SimCity (surprisingly a huge cpu hog.) When ever she fires up that game, folding on her 1ghz tbird grinds to a halt.
Now the good news. Just added a 600 mhz k7 at work, with maybe one more to come. This weekend I'm going to put the h2o cooling back on the main rig. That will give me almost 300mhz of amd. I also convinced my dad to put folding on all the computers at his office (he just got dsl.) He is on the other side of the state, and he isn't too computer savy, but I think I'll get at least 7 400 mhz machines out of it. I'm not sure how much they are on, but even just 8 hours a day would be a nice boost (strength in numbers.)
And the best part is... I don't have to pay a penny.
