My Charitable Donation to Humanity (Season's Greetings!)

[neilrieck]

Every November-December I think about making a meager donation to a different charity. This year, I was considering a financial charitable donation to Folding@Home when it occurred to me that I could make an informational charitable contribution to all of humanity by increasing my Folding@Home results (which will advance medical discoveries along with associated pharmaceutical treatments). All I needed to do is to purchase a few high-power ATI video cards on eBay then switch over to the GPU-based clients.

So, world, here is my charitable gift to you. Season's Greetings!

Donating money to Stanford/FAH may allow you to get taxes advantages.

Buying hardware and using it to fold won't give you taxes advantages.

But both will help the project

On behalf of the entire folding community, thank you.

I suggest that you also look for a PS3. You'll be able to use it to watch blue-ray movies, to play games if that appeals to you (or your kids), but most importantly, it will make an important contribution to FAH when you're not using it. It's a bit of a power-hog, though, so you'd better figure that into your contribution, and will help as a (small) electric heater on cold nights.

The site is brilliant and thanks for placing so many good resources on it.

Maybe you should put the links in your signature.
