In a pie chart like form, where do you put your CPU power?

Here's mine:

Not really sure why I don't do much SETI anymore, and not really sure why I never picked up F@H.

My pie chart would be utterly boring. 100% dFold. I crunched SETI for a little while back in March but not anymore.

I'm too lazy to install Excel and make a pie chart, so I'll just give a list of the computers I have running for each project:

SETI:
rev B iMac (it chugs along and racks up 1 cool unit a day)

RC5:
G4 350 (I would put it on dFold, my my mother refuses to run OS X. She's not into that whole "change" thing)

dFold:
G4 400
G4 733
G4 867
iMac 800 (Not up yet, but I should get dFold up on it within a week or so)

Even though there are things that I can't stand about Word, it does what I need it to do better than Appleworks can. There are also bugs that Appleworks continues to plague me with... I'm hoping that it gets better and that I can leave Microsoft once and for all, but I'm not really counting on it. I don't think it's on Apple's list of priorities.

The thing that is getting me excited right now is OpenOffice. I've met the people working on it and they are really excited about getting it working fully on OS X, with Aqua and everything. You can get it running on X Windows, if you want, but I'm waiting for the Aqua version. I haven't had a chance to use it, but I'd really like to give it a try.

Pretty simple.

Appleworks makes sorry charts.

I don't like word too, but here at OSU I had to conform. I do like Excel better than it's competitors though, and I don't like myself for that!
