Last chance to get in on Team Engadget's latest Folding@home contest!
posted Dec 12th 2005 12:55PM
Well, it's December 12th and we're
dangerously close to cracking the top 100 Folding@home teams in the world — but we're also getting down to the wire on
our latest Folding@home contest deadline, people! December
15th! So you've got three days to join up and get 2,000 points to be entered to win a sweet Tokyo Flash watch —
just a reminder of how this works: those users with 2,000 or more points will be automatically entered to win a sweet
Tokyo Flash watch. See how easy that is? Plus, you know, you'll be helping to cure protein-folding related disease like
cancer and Alzheimer's — join up now! Even if you can't
make the 2,000 points in time, 'tis the season to be giving spare CPU cycles. Oh, and if you haven't already, please be
sure and shout out your F@h name in the comments so we can identify you if you're picked as the winner!

Maybe I should have kept up with this but what is folding at home all about, everytime i start reading what they post about it, i get confused and bored reading it. Can someone give a 1 sentence explain on this?
