i run SystemInformation[] and then Benchmark on my PC.
The results were:

System: Linux x86 (32-bit)
Date: December 16, 2009
Mathematica Version: 7.0.1
Benchmark Result: 0.63


Comparing to the other PC in the Reportlist my system seems to be very slow.

My PC is a AMD 3.2 GHz XP 64 CPU with 2 GB RAM.
Anything i could check why it is so slow?

It loooks veeery slow to me, considering your specs.
Is your PC normally so slow?
Did you run the test on a "clean" machine (right after booting)?

I did not notice anything special.

Yes.
Could you post me your test results please?

Your system seems slow. Could you check which tests were particularly
time-consuming with your computer, compared to others in test. I
remember that with some version change (maybe from 5 to 6) Mathematica
updated the core mathematical library (from Intel) that is used for
certain floating-point operations. The library was not optimized to some
AMD-processor and the Mathematica performance on my PC at the time
decreased quite much.
