By my reading, my not-really-a-gaming-desktop could do it in 3 hours, that doesn't seem bad at all.

Now granted, those were heavyweight specs when Android came out in 2007, but I'd figure about half of us probably have a similar box sitting around today, and the other half would just need to beef one up with some additional RAM.

I haven't used a desktop since 2010 and my laptop is old. Building AOSP is the sort of huge compute-task that sticks out with its rarity.
