Well, hmmm, I got lots of machines...
I've been doing this for five months. The first month I did 500, the following two about 1400 each. Tha last two months I've had a little fight with FireWire where we both incresed output a lot to try to outpace each other. November ended up at about 2000 units and December almost at 3000.
Now when FireWire has slipped in pace I might do the same, but I still expect somewhere between 1500 to 2500 from January.
Please donīt be scared of the high numbers. This is a team effort and every bit helps, no matter if you return 1 or 50 units a day.
Happy crunching! /Daniel

I managed to corral two computers a week during the week and 1 extra on weekends at work that have the client on them. This gives me about 30 units a week. I have our family's Macintoshes cranking and they run during the day usually and give me another 1 unit a day each for a total of 15 or 20 units a week. Our iBook runs 24/7 except on rare occasions that it is portable. That's good for another 14 or so units a week.
I'm about to do upgrade the computers at work from seti@home version 2.4 to 3.3 and that may slow down my count a bit. I think all of the Macs are running 3.0.

Are you guys running 3.03?
Seems like that iBook is doing more then my G3-400.
Don't worry, I'm not intimidated by high numbers. I just started a week and a half ago. I'm sure I'll get more comps on SETI soon.
I'm curious as to how you guys get so many computers. Are you network admins or something?

I did 400 in November, and it looks like about 1400 in December. But, between machines going on to new jobs and 3.03 I will drop to about 1 an hour for the foreseeable future.
