Folding@Home improvements coming soon [UPDATE]
Firmware 2.10 has paved the way for an update to the Folding@Home client. which will arrive soon. The improvements are definitely quite interesting in that they are actually very useful. No longer will you need to worry about leaving your PS3 on all the time - F@H will be able to shut down your console after either the current work unit has completed, or after a certain amount of time.
Not only that, but we can confirm that Folding@Home will receive custom soundtracks. No longer will you have an attack of conscience when using the PS3 to play music - no more will you think to yourself "I'm really enjoying this music, but I feel so guilty that I'm not curing cancer ... ", for now you can do both at the same time. Astonishing!
In all seriousness, though - this is a very handy update and we'll certainly be running our music through Folding@Home over the holidays. No word on exactly when the updated version will be available, but it should be pretty soon, all things considered.[UPDATE] The update is now available to download. Simply start Folding@Home and you will prompted to upgrade.
