WUs with long preferred deadlines

I ordered an Atom n270 based system as a stop gap for some basic work, and after I'm done with that I want to fold on it. However from what I have read that cpu doesn't seem to meet the preferred deadlines for SMP WUs, so I was curious if there are still single threaded WUs that have have long preferred deadlines? When running the system in my spec it would get these long preferred deadline WUs. I'm folding for the science, so anything past the preferred deadline is no good. I was also running the non-smp client on PD systems last year and they would get WUs that were finished on time. I was thinking running two instances of the non-smp client on the n270. Maybe 50PPD per virtual core, but as long as they finish before the preferred deadline I'll be happy.

Thanks!

I fold with a Atom N280 in a netbook and I use the uniprocessor client. The points aren't that great but every little bit helps.
