Re: [MBZ] Gee fo
Not so, computers have surged w ahead in the last 12-18 months especially in my business (video production) largely because of the availablity of 64 bit operating systems. I think what we're seeing on the home market now is that people don't really DO all that much and for web browsing and email you don't really NEED all that much horsepower. I've got a 2.4Ghz Intel mobo and processor at home with 2GB of RAM and its entirely adequate for all my needs on the email/web browsing/web page creation/graphics editing front as a home user. Systems today are (interestingly) the same number (around 2.4Ghz) but you start talking dual core processors and faster bus speeds so effectively 2-2.5x the speed of the machine I have. Mine is maxed out for RAM and its slow RAM and I can't run a 64 bit OS so theres more speed available on the newer machine there too. Oh I also can't use an SATA hard drive which is faster so again more speed. With the proper OS and a bucketload of RAM and good video card and whatnot I'd say a machine comparable to mine in today's tech is maybe 4-5x faster overall. Thats speed I don't need of course, my system is totally adequate. My video editing system is a dual 2.2Ghz with 2GB of RAM and BADLY needs replacing as its too slow to do any practical HD video work. I've got a pretty big, mostly HD project coming up so I need an upgrade. Dual 3.0Ghz systems with faster bus speeds are only a couple hundred bucks so I think I'm going to go that route.

It seems like computer technology has hit various walls, and computer's haven't gotten significantly faster in recent years. My dad is still using a desktop I built for him in 2002, and its maybe 50-75% as powerful as the standard low end desktops they're selling nowadays. Not enough to make a noticeable difference for normal tasks like web browsing and writing... It has an Athlon XP 1500+ cpu and a gigabyte of ram. In comparison, a 7 year old computer in 2002 would have been something like 50-100mhz, and probably have 32mb of ram- several orders of magnitude slower than the computers being sold in 2002 and useless for running modern applications at the time.

However, it's trivial to change shortcuts in the GIMP, so one could make them match Photoshop. I can get more done in a given amount of time with Adobe - but I have not yet found anything I needed to do that I _could_ not do in the GIMP. So if time is money, Adobe can be worth it.

...What he said. I have both Intel and G4 Macs in the house, and I kept the G4s on 10.4. They seem happier My G4 MDD and 10.4.11 are doing OK, thank you. And one of the experts at the Apple store agreed with me about not upgrading. So, I won't. Yet. RLE ** A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!

Re: [MBZ] Gee fo
You might not need to upgrade for quite some time. It seems like computer technology has hit various walls, and computer's haven't gotten significantly faster in recent years. My dad is still using a desktop I built for him in 2002, and its maybe 50-75% as powerful as the standard low end desktops they're selling nowadays. Not enough to make a noticeable difference for normal tasks like web browsing and writing... It has an Athlon XP 1500+ cpu and a gigabyte of ram. In comparison, a 7 year old computer in 2002 would have been something like 50-100mhz, and probably have 32mb of ram- several orders of magnitude slower than the computers being sold in 2002 and useless for running modern applications at the time.
