Can you run folding at home while playing a game or listening to songs stored on your HDD at the same time?

No, it sucks up the brainpower of the unit. Most folks run it while idle.

While the unit and program is actively on and you do nothing else with it.

I think folding@home is a waste of power on the PS3. I mean it's good that Sony wants to help the world, but did we really buy the PS3 for anyone other than ourself?
