Sorry to get your hopes up, it's actually a Pentium 200 MHz FV80503200.

Trig - that was the first CPU I ever used to crunch with! Pentium 200MMX - Or I might have had a 220MMX, can't remember now. Built my rig when I headed up to undergrad college at UAF that year, and when I was there I got on the SETI USA team crunching SETI@home.
As an aside, my Dad had invested in a Pentium Pro 200MHz that same year, and we were always trying to benchmark each other's rig faster - have to admit, I think the Pentium Pro was a better design, but the Windows OS and other software wasn't coded to utilize it efficiently yet. I was a bit bummed out when Intel discontinued the PPro, actually.
I've been playing with win8 consumer preview for a couple of weeks and I am uninstalling it. I hate it and have downloaded Ubuntu. I will see if my feeble mind can understand how to use it. No more win 8 for me. I will keep Win 7 and dual boot Ubuntu until I can figure it out.
RETIRED. NO JOB. NO MONEY. NO WORRIES!
Crunched SETI Classic to the end.
SETI@home classic workunits
17,550
SETI@home classic CPU time 86,861 hours
They finally did it, damn them. I am going to have to figure out Linux after all. I pity those of you who will have to hold my hand and dry my tears becaus I don't know if my brain can do such a thing.
Thank you all for raining on my parade!
I am going to go weep quietly in some dark corner now...
Since I am a gluten for excessive punishment, I will now try Win8 in a vm...... This is sure to be an experience like no other.
The thing that really torques me is I am stuck with Windows on my business rigs for two reasons. 1. is an EHR/billing healthcare office software, and 2. is an infrared scanning device we use, which is also interfaced with Windows software. Grrrrr...at least Win7 x64 works so well, it may just be on these computers for a loooooooooong time to come.
