26000 khash\s is slow isn't it? It's not even worth trying to make Bitcoins, correct?

If you're getting 26Mh/s on a machine that you don't pay electricity for and that you can just leave running 24/7, then let it run.

Otherwise, no. 26Mh/s is terribly slow :)

at that hash rate, you will get (mining in a pool - solo is out of the question, obviously) one Bitcoin every 17 days.

that's running 24/7; with your mining program set to max, so that your computer will be essentially unusable.

if it's an old 'puter, and you have another, and you're not paying for electricity...?
