Anyone else tried it? It's really nice... just like his USB stick folding (and I imagine his Live CD folding too).
It's a pre-fabbed VM, very small - 16MB, that is setup and ready to Fold. Works very well. The only thing I had trouble with is monitoring it due to the fact that it doesn't sync to NTP under VMWare. I still have to figure that one out.
Otherwise, it's a great alternative to running other full linux distros under VMWare. No need for a GUI, just Folding... no need to eat all that HD space with a full Ubuntu install. Once I get the monitoring issues figured out I'll be moving all my VMs this way.
