I saw this as a wishlist post somewhere, but didn't know Microsoft was
working on it. They also said they were working on Windows for the OLPC

FWIW, you can probably run Folder@Home on the XBox360 /already/. It does,
after all, boot into Linux, thanks to a vulnerability which enabled access
in hypervisor mode.
