I both agree and disagree with that statement. Most of the commen applications benifet from higher speeds. Try running OS X on a 4-5 year old computer...It's either slow as hell or just doesnt work. Even a word prossesing program is more complicated and power consuming than whole os's of the past. Although games progress at a much quicker rate than normal software, everything else is also progressing. And leaves computers in the dust. I think the whole future of computing is in upgradibility and the slowing of having to scrap your old mac's.... nick -- If I survive this life alive, I'll be very suprised. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
