OK, maybe this is a stupid question, but would anyone be interested in a free renderfarm?

Of course you are!  =)

So here's how it works:

You often render pictures and get annoyed that you need many hours to render them? And then there's also times when your CPU just idles around as you are browsing webpages or just listening to music while reading an ebook? You're perfect for the free private render farm project.  =)

How it works? 

• Everyone interested in participating installs a render cow on one of your computers that have the lowest CPU usage. Your workstation would be great, or any other computer that isnt permanently using 100% CPU power.
• You install any dynamic IP service on that computer (i use no-ip.org, they give you 5 free hostnames), enable the rendercow port (5002 by default) in your firewall/router and post the dynip hostname on the participants board.
• In your Hypervue manager you add the other participants nodes.
• finished! Now you can render on all other participants computers, getting enormous combined CPU power

OK, thats my idea. Anyone interested? Before i start working on this as my next project i wanted to know if basically anyone is interested, would be stupid to build up a distributed computing community just for myself.

Questions? Ideas? Comments? Critics? Wishes?
