XBox 360 to get Rosetta@Home?

Rosetta@Home
There’s more than one Folding@Home type project out there. It seems that the XBox 360 owners were a little jealous that they couldn’t help cure diseases too. It could be possible that soon enough they won’t have to be so jealous anymore. Could the XBox 360 get Rosetta@Home? A project similar to Folding@Home? Those XBox 360 powerhouses need to be put to some work.
However we must keep in mind that this is all speculation based on the following points,

  • Bill Gates is a huge supporter in the fight against AIDS and believes that a cure can be found in his lifetime. Rosetta@Home can make that dream come true.
  • Rosetta@Home received 10 million US dollars from the Gates Foundation last year for HIV research.
  • October 2006, Rosetta@Home head scientist and developer David Baker said on the projects message boards that they have been talking with Microsoft regarding XBOX 360 consoles

We know nothing more about this little project. However its worth informing you about.
