Is it even worth putting these up for SETI?

I have two old systems, a celery 433 and a celery 766. I don't think they'd crank many WU's out, maybe one or two a day, is it even worth is to put SETI on them? If so, how many WU's a day do you think they could crunch?

I had a 500mhz Celeron that averaged 13.5 hours per, so adjust a little from there. I guess it's up to you... i know some people run slower ones than that.

Should get 4 WU's per day from the two of them. 4/day=28/week=112/month=1344/year:Q

hell yes its worth it. every unit counts!

If every TeAmmate had those, that would be an additional 6,000 WU's per day!

But...it's up to you. If you feel that the electricity, or some other factor, isn't worth it, then you'll have to make that decision.

I have bought several motherboards/chips to replace PIII 550's running at home because of electricity usage....but...I'm running the new boards and PIII's also...

Hmm, I have a 500MHz celery, but I thought it would be slower than that. More motivation to get it up and running, I guess...

Here's the complete stats for that computer, at least what i got logged:

500mhz Celeron
Windows 98se
256mb PC100 SDRAM
CLI(v3.03)/SETI Driver/SETI Spy
Fastest time- 10:51:38 (7.180 AR)
Slowest time- 20:37:56 (0.071 AR)
Average time for 342 WU's- 13:37:00

GUI(v3.03)
Average time for 217 WU's- 17:31:59

Ok, I'll put them both up I suppose
