Thanks.   Yes I would definitely use command line. That is what I am
currently running on this PC and am getting 1 WU every 2:40 or so.

I have access to about 15 PII 266, 20 PII 233 & 15 Pen 166 that are
currently doing nothing but gathering dust.

All have network cards co I was thinking of networking to my DSL modem
to
allow them to update as each needs.

I have a number of small HD so figure to install Win 95 hook em up and
let
em rip

But are these units just too slow to bother?
I don't need to have a monitor running except during setup so power
isn't a
biggy.


umm I don't think it will be to slow. And if yo run seti@home with
Boinc@home it will give coustom work units for each PC. But Boinc is
tell in Beta stage. I hope this helped.

I also forgot to say. Since there will be go need or want for grafics
you could use the command line client. It will work faster with each
work unit. I think Boinc also has a command line client. I use Boinc and
I like it. But I am not for sure it you is to use something tell in the
Beta stage. I was like of wired about it also. But I just love seti@home
so much I could not turn it down lol.
