I find the idea really interesting. And the portuguese startup called crowdprocess seems to be down with this stuff.
I just think that charity would be a great angle to it. How about you donate your CPU cycles for charity ? Companies that need to use large scale parallel processing use the service, your browser does the client side processing and the money that the gets paid by companies goes to charity minus running costs.
Now that would be beautiful. CPU cycles for charity!

http://folding.stanford.edu/home/ I believe has a screensaver that will run simulations and has the results fired back to be collated. It also has a cool visualization :)
