For comparison, my 2.2 Ghz Celeron/384 Mb(266 Mhz) ram with 3.08 CLI for

Buck,

These are all cli interfaces.  Figured out a while ago, that cli was a
lot better than graphical.

Using your example, I have a new Dellnote Inspiron 1100 portable with 
a Celeron 2.0, 512mb memory, doing nothing but seti.  It takes an 
average of 7h44m running the 3.08 cli interface.  This is running XP 
Home.  If it were only 10% slower than your 2.2 processor, then I 
would expect to see a wu in 6 hours or so.

That is what I'm trying to figure out.  I read on this newsgroup about
others and their speeds and my machines do not approach their 
performance.
