Questo computer macina dalla nascita di SETI, quindi da 11 anniI'm actually still running the very first machine I started crunching with (Seti classic back in 1999). It's a Celeron 466 overclocked to about 550 or thereabouts. It was my work machine from 1999 to about 2004 and it has run 24/7 ever since I first bought it. It was retired from work duties about the time Seti BOINC was launched and it has continued to crunch to this day (I didn't have the heart to ever turn it off) :-). Everything is still all original - even the hard disk has never missed a beat. It's running Win 98SE and it only ever stops if there is a power failure. The last one was probably about a year ago. Before someone points out that it's impossible to get even two week uptimes (let alone year long ones) with Win98, yes, I know, but I solved that behaviour years ago with the unofficial win98SE service pack (google it if you really must) which completely solved all those stability issues. On Seti it has a RAC of around 40 and around 70K total credit. Before that it did lots of Seti classic WUs. If overclocking per se is so damaging, why is that machine still crunching? :-).
