Once I get broadband in my apartment I'll have to get the Seti thing. That should give the MURC team a little more power.

Hey Ant:
In your experience how many WU's could I contribute with about 18hrs per day of crunching on my old K6III 400? The thing just Idles most of the time.Greebe's juiced up Athlon @750 on an MSI Irongate Based M/B Marvel G200 TV with HW/DVD Daughtercard,
CDBurner, Creative DVD, two big WD Hdds, Outboard 56K modem

Tim: I think it'll do 1 to 2 WU's a day (in that 18 hours). As I've looked around most K6-3's do a WU inbetween 7 and 10 hours.
Jammrock: What has broadband got to do with it? (Thinking of a modem here, I might be mistaken) My P3-450 non OC takes inbetween 5 and 6 hours to crunch a WU
WU = Work Unit

Try it now Jammrock, the WU (Manchu)'s are no bigger than 348k, sometimes even smaller.

Erm Jorden,
How come some of my units are 351k then?
Is a k 1024 or 1000!Everything I say is true apart from that which is notComment

Okay... errrr (how do I figure this one?)
It counts to 351k (visible), but when you look in the Seti@home directory, with details on, it shows 348k ...
Haven't got a clue where the extra 3k went

Currently I have one phone line and a crappy connect. It would probably take an hour just to download a single WU for Seti. Once I have broadband I can leave my computer on and connected to crunch WU's to its hearts content.
