If everyone running folding at home suddenly stopped I very much doubt that they would then mail that $7.45 a month they saved in power to another worthy cause, and as for the hardware most pursue it anyway.
Just saying that F@H expands the base of charitable donation, not consume a share of the existing 'market' by providing another avenue for donations.
just started with this F@H, have the GPU client running on my 8800GT on here, as well as the SMP client on here with my X2 3800+. Slapped the standard client on the rubbish machine @ work as well, its rubbish, but its on 24/7
