Default Netbook faster than desktop?
My sig rig has been running f@h all night, and my netbook (intel atom n270) has been running about 2 hours. The desktop is on 550/2500 , the netbook is 117/2500.

Is for some reason this netbook running faster than my desktop??

Yeah GPU folding is way more efficient than CPU folding by a longshot. You'd need to run WINE and a Win client through Linux though if I'm thinking right.

It could also be that they were running different work units.

But yeah, your amd sig rig would thank you for an upgrade.
