Dubious.  To have it done within the day (I assume you're referring
to the 800x600 version), the computer would have to be 6 times as fast
as this one.  That's 10.8 GHz.  They don't have those publicly
available yet in single processors.

Besides, I'd like to go for one of those new Intel processors that
can do multithreading, and have POV run on one thread and still be
able to use the computer...
