One more project for my ultra-old, ultra-slow IBM Power3!
:-bd
Pretty good production for a 400MHz processor.

48 cobblestones for 5 hours is good for this box. That's about 230 a day, which is more than any other cpu intensive app it's done. It's way better than Enigma.
I'll be sticking with DNETC on the POWER3 now.
I'm still trying to get a workunit here on my PS3. I got it running primaboinca and whoever said the credits were bad, they weren't kidding! I tried some yoyo but some of the workunits get stuck after 23 minutes and I have to abort them. I am curious to see what this thing can do on DNETC if they ever give me a WU!
Maxwell is the person here with the PS3, if he still has it and is still running it. I'm surprised he hasn't commented yet. You could send him a PM or something.Quote:

Which BOINC client are you running for the PS3?Quote:

Is there a walk through on how to do this on my ps3? Or is this for the older ps3's without the update?
Check the FAQ section, but yes, this is only for the older non-Slim PS3s without the evil firmware update of death.Quote:

So what makes Sony's firmware so special? I'm sure someone out there could do it.
There are hacks and cracks out there, but I don't think there's a big market for the ability to install Linux on the PS3. Which is the issue...Quote:
