Anyone know if in the near future will be possible to port a PS3 to WCG?

Welcome Buben among us in the AMDusers forums!

I can´t for sure say anything but we have a membes as run FAH using PS3. Their WU´s takes days but I don´t know how many times a WU takes in WCG but I have discovered it is a popular project.

WU's on the PS3 take hours not days ;) (AFAIK that is...they're all saying they're getting 700PPD day and a WU is about 266 points...)

No other projects have expressed an interest in harnessing the power of the PS3.

Possibly by using WINE. It may not work since i am not sure if WINE can convert X86 into PPC, but they do have WINE for PPC linux. I've been trying to get linux re-installed on my PS3, but i think i have messed up the Kboot when trying to install Gentoo on it. I tried reformating the Hdd, but with no success. When i get some more free time i'm going to try again though.

Which project? I can crunch genome's in about 1hr 20mins on my 3400+

Sorry I assumed you meant WCG; I was going by the title of the thread.
