Never. I'm not going to put more stress on my console than I have to or use more non-gaming electricity :P

I fold all the time. And by doing so I feel it puts a lot less stress on the system because it's not going through the heating and cooling cycles of turning the system on and off all the time. As of last night I was around 380 + units completed.

Folding Home is a scientific project that helps in medical field research.

You can learn about it here: http://www.scei.co.jp/folding/en/

I use it time to time, when I'm not playing or watching movies I'd leave it on for few hours when I go outside as well. It's nice to known you contribute to good cause.
