That's interesting because I calculated M37 =  2^3021377-1 (909526 digits) on 
a 2.6 GHz pentium 4 using my  own C++ class to represent large ints and it 
about 2 hours.
 
I calculated the same thing on _www.sagenb.org_ (http://www.sagenb.org)  and 
it took about 6  minutes!
 
Well, I suppose 4 Xeon cores is a mini cluster of sorts.
