How long does it take the average computer to complete a block as of April 2011? 6 days or so? How can I compute this?

The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

Depends on your hashing speed.

I understand, I have used this, but what's the average hash rate? Definitely a range, and that's what I'm looking for.

My current hash rate is very low, it's between 500-1000 khash/s

Average computer, hashing with a CPU, is probably close to 1000 kh/s, or 1 mh/s.

Hashing with a GPU is significantly faster, around 80000 kh/s, or 80mh/s for an average GPU (for computers that have dedicated GPUs).

What kind of GPUs are you talking about? A 5450?

Higher than that, I'd bet that for computers with dedicated GPUs, they're usually on the 5670 level or so, or about 80 mh/s

You talking built in GPUs you mean???

Most miners buy 5870s, or 5970s I thought? Or at least I did... which average 300 and 600 (stock clocks) respectively.

Right, but miners are certainly not 'average' users or average computers.
