Thanks but as mentioned I've got the P4 3 GHz doing units in about 2.5

hours

and the Celeron is my second machine. I've given up upgrading it.

I just got a 2.4 Celeron for my wife and I am buying a 2.4 or more
regular chip and putting it in. Her computer is MUCH slower when she
does some things even when compared to her old 1ghz machine. It has a
512k cache.
Yes I am running the CLI and SetiDriver but I am only getting about
7.5 hours per workunit!

that's not bad compared to me.

driver
