I've got a 200 mhz MMX laying about here somewhere. Any idea
how long that machine will take to do a WU?

I'd say 20+ hours at a guess, maybe more. A Celeron 900 takes
about 8 hours on average.


Hmmm, I'll let that 200 mhz machine run boinc, just to see what
happens.

I'd like to know how it goes. I have an overclocked 166MMX (As if
I'd run anything that wasn't overclocked. <g> It's only clocked to
188Mhz though, 75Mhz FSB. Not the greatest mobo, very limited, an
old AT.) but I don't have a spare port on my ethernet switch to
give it internet access. Methinks I need a switch with more ports.

Well I hooked it up. I'm surprised I got that old 10 bit networkcard
installed so quickly.

Anyway, it says it is going to take a little over 35 hrs.

LOL, I originally wrote 30+ hours then thought "Nah, it's gotta be
quicker than that".

Even better, it's going to take more than 40 hrs!
