I work at a BestBuy and I am trying to see if they can integrate F@H into the demo software installed on all display computers. Would be pretty cool if all 900 something BestBuys and their 30 something laptops could all contribute.

Their concern is that the power draw and heat would increase power bills and decrease display lifespan for the consumer that buys it.

With the cpu usage slider all the way down, or lower at least, does anyone know the amount of difference it would make? I would think minimal.

Also, does anyone know the size of the work unit files?
