I do it from time to time, because I like the idea that my PS3 is contributing to some research in however small a way. I've only completed 3 units of work.

I don't care about any sort of reward for me personally. The only reward I'd be interested in is news of any promising findings as a result of all this folding.

Should have made it SETI@Home.

Yeah, that'd be much more beneficial than curing cancer
