Indeed, but you also posted a result < 50 seconds, so I posted my closest
result.

The Dual Athlon 2.4 isn't "only" fast at chess.. I've done video encoding, mp3
encoding, chess, kernel compiles, all retardedly fast.. :) Any benchmark you'd
like to do, let me know.. I'll run it for ya. I think you'd be surprised. :)
Especially in RC5, where I believe this 2x2.4 is roughly 3x faster than a dual
Xeon 3.06. If you're interested in trying the RC5 (72bit decryption) benchmark,
I'll put up a copy on my FTP.
