I have a super old Pentium III 400MHz, would it be able to complete any workunits before the deadline?

it would be able to, but I'd personally not run it as it will be use far less energy efficient per WU than a comparable modern machine. If it were on anyway then i'd say go for it, but otherwise, i'd suggest the CO2 reduction would be more beneficial ;)
