Feeling proud just about to (99.286%) complete first work unit!! so how
many have you guys done (took ages 54 hrs 53 mins on my p300 128mb win98
system running all time (not just as screensaver best power 3.76 period
2.7394 score 0.99 is this good??? what is the best power you guys have?
what are gaussians???

Knowing our luck the file with the E.T's on it is sitting on a hard disk
of someone who lost interest!!

I have done about 23,500 WUs over the past 4.5 years........and don't worry
about files not being processed. Each WU is sent out numerous times. 

I've got about 12 PCs on the job: 

PII-350  - Linux
PIII-450 - Linux
Celeron 600 - Linux
PIII-500 - Linux
PIII-600EB - Linux
PIII-750 (laptop) - Win98SE
PIII-866 - Linux
AMD 1200+ (800MHz) - Win98SE
AMD 1.4GHz - WinME
AMD 2000+ (1.67GHz) - Linux 
2 x AMD 200+ (1.866GHz) - Linux on both. 

This lot do about 40WUs / day. As you can see, I switched from Intel to AMD
about 18 months ago because the price/performance ratio was just too good.
