I know that alot of us Folders also Crunch, but considering the current situation with HWC, we have to reevaluate our hardware allocations. Recently, I have been playing around with Notfred's VM Appliance and have more than doubled the PPD from my HTPC. The CPU is an unlocked 45nm Athlon X2 5000+ @ 3.2ghz which CPU-Z identifies as a Phenom II X4 FX-5000 (Smoking deal on Newegg for $65.00 shipped). SMP ppd was 1500+ in Vista64 on a 1920 pt WU and now I'm getting 3900+ running 2 VM's with the same WU's. Unfortunately, you must have a 64bit OS to run the VM player and Vm's like 4gb+ of ram. If you guys are interested in giving it a shot, let me know and i will post a tutorial.
EDIT: Works great in XP 32bit SP3
