Haha BlueGene...I'm not sure if its made to run folding very well anyway. Plus I live in Canada so its not like I can sneak that on there. On top of that, I'm not that high up in the company
(though I have talked to and shaken the hand of the head of the technology branch in Canada on several occasions)
That said we do have a secret project being built closeby in Toronto and upon completion should be the most powerful super computer in Canada. I should be able to get my hands on that baby soon enough
Don't know if I'll be able to install Folding@home on them though, as mostly they'll be running customized Unix (AIX) on the Power6 boxes or a flavour of Linux on the x86 boxes.
