I fold for my girlfriend (well now ex... kinda... its weird). She has lupus. Anything I can do to help I want to do, and folding isnt even hard. Other than installing a program, there is no other work for it.

And I love the new GPU folding, I got my 8800 GT running hard and fast.

I fold with my PS3, does that count?

Honestly, I don't know much about the Folding on PC, competition or the like. I have asked, but am without answers. Also, I don't want to increase my bill too much on electricity as I am a tight enough budget as it is. I do respect anyone who folds in the least bit though.

My message to you ALL is this really. Enjoy life. Spend time with family and your loved ones. Help people when you can without wanting something back for it !. Make the most of EVERYTHING because you will never know when it is going to be gone.
In the age of the modern media and entertainment, it sometimes easy to lose track of what really matters until it hits you in the face and your left wondering what ever happened between you and the people you really loved.

Stay strong Enterprise, together we can all make a difference.

Thanks fellas your words are much appreciated. I think the pint systems is good as it does serve as an incentive for the competitive. Thus it serves to boost the overall folding power.

I think there are MANY people in the world that FOLD because of loved ones or loved ones that we have lost.

Lets all keep up the Folding where we can to keep others from suffering!

There is no such thing as a perfect world but we can take steps to make it better and better all the time.

WAIT WAIT!


Folding also is the search to find Huntington's Disease cure?

If so, a very good friend of mine, his mother died because of it. And I fret for his loss.

As I used to argue "No scientific advances." But I was not aware of the search for such a care.



BACK TO FOLDING!

Of course! EVERY little bit helps.

I've been hooked on the folding bug since January. I can't afford a huge folding farm (I so totally would pull a Gibson and trick my laundry room with quads though ), but I do the best I can with what I have. I must say, I do my fair share of science

I don't have anyone to personally fold for, but that doesn't mean I never will or should just stop because it doesn't affect me. Everyone should try it at least once, no matter their situation (provided they can afford it, but who can't if they have a computer that can meet deadlines?).

~Gooda~

Enterprise, I'm truely sorry to read this, and especially, about your little one. I do feel you though. Alot of people don't know this, but my wife is fighting cancer, she is winning, but it has been a long hard battle. This is one of the reasons why I'm so dedicated to the folding program. I also fold for the cause, but you can say I have a personal interest in it. Anyways, I wish nothing but the best for you and yours. Good luck.
