While we're on the subject, how easy is it to set up VMWare?

if you use the walkthrough it is very easy, takes abit of time to get it setup, but nice because you can pause the machine (and your work units) and load them back up anytime in seconds, and its folds quite abit quicker then the windows smp distro.

Why does it show the number of active processors @ two? Do they mean active computers/ps3s, as opposed to cores?

Also, the detailed page for our team appears to not be updated as frequently as my user stats page; shows only 340 pts, from the first PS3 WU.

Would the PS3 fold faster/better if I installed F @ H on the Linux partition?

Only ~2000 pts to go for a postbit :-)
