the issues with those is the Floating Point processor is not strong enough to do the higher end calculations needed by the projects.

Another problem is that the cpu is only around 400mhz in speed. It would take 20 hours or more to crunch one unit, and you can't turn the unit off during that time period, or it would just take even longer.

The last issue is that when not active, the CPU slows down to a crawl, as in less than 1 MHz in some cases.
