A few days ago I posted a question about problems I was having with running Climate Prediction on Boinc & Win98... As I was informed, Win98 wont run the Boinc version so I was planning on switching to the Classic on that host... The question I had was how much time will it take to process a WU on a 600 Mhz machine or is it gonna be a was of time to try this...

Thanks...

At 600 MHz and running all the time, it might take four months, possibly longer.

Thanks for the answer... As the computer isnt on 24/7, it sounds like running Climate in either version is gonna be a waste of time as the WU will probably not be finished before the deadline... Guess I should have asked this before trying the Boinc client as well...
