What's even more amazing is how a Radeon X1900 is 2-3 times faster than a PS3 in terms of Folding output. (Not trying to start a flame war here, but it's pretty insane)

But yeah, the PS3 is tearing up the Folding stats. 32992 PS3s output 4.6 times more than 183801 computers.

I currently fold for team 32, but I will switch over My stats: http://folding.extremeoverclocking.c....php?s=&u=5219

If anyone knows of a proxy that works with Folding please let me know, I can get our Q6600 at school Folding then.
