True but take S0UL for example, he just folds at work and the computers he folds on are, IIRC, just servers. Cause he was folding at work he had to ask his boss and his boss was fine with it, because apparently he folds too lol. I think that's the case anyway.
I do agree with you though, it's all for the cause so I don't think you should only be allowed to run it on you computers you maintain.
BTW, has anyone heard of GPUGrid?
