Google is also experimenting with distributed computing. The Google Search Bar, which adds search capabilities to a Web browser's toolbar, donates spare cycles to Stanford's Folding@Home project, which simulates the ultra-complex process of protein folding.

With almost 28000 processors, they are by far the biggest producing team out there. Bigger even that the group of those who haven't selected a team. If something like this *could* be done for macrumors members, it would do wonders for our production.
Mind you, one or two people might not like somthing like this being done on the sly ;)
