I a ruuning the screen saver version. I will try using the cli version. The
pc is always on so it might as weel do something.

After I got braodband I downloaded all the windows updated for Win98 SE. My
whole pc is now much slower. I was expecting to complete this unit in about
80 hours.

I am now 93% done after a huge 151 hours!
I suppose I now have windows bloat and a longer than usual workunit to
process.

But I will get it done. :-)

To bad they can't make a client that works on newer pocket PC's, hell the
400mhrz processors on Pocket PC2000's and 2002's can do some good.

Also I know some got it running well on modified Xbox's. But imagine an
Xbox
Lvie version for download. Put those Xbox's to use for more then video
games.

HI

I have done 429 units and after over 12,500 hours processing in total.
So
I
have done my contribution.

My PC is a P200 with 64Mb ram

I dont have the option to upgrade to a new pc so I am wondering if I
should
retire from processing. The work units are taking on average 70hours and
therefore will have been done many times over my the latest pc's by the
time
I finish.

What do you think?
