Ohh dear.. My bitcoin miner has a cpu built in 1964. It's gonna take a terribly long, long time to find anything.. ;)

I was gonna say, jokes on those viruses. I'm not an Olympic athlete. They just infected the human equivalent of a 1995 Compaq Presario. Also, good luck even getting the pennies that actually get mined. I've got a 56k modem and a family that keeps forgetting not to use the phone when I'm on the internet.
