Xbox 360 could beat PS3 in Folding

What is Folding?

You can help by simply running a piece of software. Folding@Home is a distributed computing project -- people from through out the world download and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world. Every computer makes the project closer to our goals.

Folding@Home uses novel computational methods coupled to distributed computing, to simulate problems thousands to millions of times more challenging than previously achieved.

I don't think it would be as bad if Microsoft admitted liability for the faults in their console but to invite people to do this and then leave them stranded with a broken machine is laughable.

This seems to be more on getting one up on Sony rather than looking out for their customers.

if MS is to allow Folding with the x360, the console will most probably don't come with any warranty. :D

+ how many points do you think MS would charge to allow it?
 
what it is saying is that the 360 cpu wouldnt stand a cat in hell's chance against the cell.

its suggesting that MAYBE the ati GPU chip would.

what it doesnt mention is that this is a GPU vs a cpu and pretty much unfair, or that if both machines used both processing units (cpu and gpu) the ps3 would win hands down.
 
This is the same guy who said this.....

PETER MOORE: So to create experiences that transform reality, well, that's really a lot to ask of any medium. To ensure that the next generation delivers, every game is built on what we call Essentials, a foundation of requirements every game must have before it can ship on the Xbox 360 platform. These essentials include a minimum of 720p high definition resolution to provide gamers with jaw-dropping visual clarity and fidelity. Many developers are already working on games in 1080i.

Every Xbox 360 game will be designed for high definition widescreen television and will support 16x9 aspect ratio to expand the storytelling canvas.

Let me just say very clearly: These games will also look amazing on standard definition TV.

In addition, Xbox 360 games will provide anti-aliasing that gets rid of what we call the jaggies. Well, you know what, with Xbox 360, the age of the jaggies is over, superseded by smooth, lifelike visuals of cinematic quality.

hhhmmmm......
