How do you open that up? I just installed 23.7 and I can't find it.

By the way, you want to use PayPal again? We could get some pretty good computing power, like this...

When you run Prime95 for the first time, it contacts the Primenet server to get exponents, and that creates and populates your worktodo.ini file.

What about manual checkout?

Create a plain text file with notepad and save as worktodo, leaving the extension blank - for some reason notepad won't save otherwise - then change to .ini with exploder.

Notepad will save it properly if you change the file type in the save dialog to "All Files" and then type the complete filename in the file name section...

OK, I'll do that. I just did automatic, but I checked out 5 numbers before so I'll use those.

I'm using a PII 366 MHZ. Sound slow? Well compared to K6, it's not! On K6 it takes 3000 seconds to complete 10000 iterations. But on PII, it only takes 600. It's reasonable, but it's a big change for me.

K6 is comparable to a P-II on factoring, but the half-speed FPU does make it slow on LL work.

Of course, they're BOTH slow compared to anything current....
