Which would be just about everyone who's acquired a PC in the last,
say, 4-5 years or so.  :-)

Today in a Fry's advertisement:

     Athlon X2 dual-core motherboard - $58.00
     1GB DDR2 - $5.00

Less money than the cost of a tank of gas for a motherboard and ram.

Also noted in the same advertisement:

     Complete dual-core PC with 17" LCD screen
     and multifunction printer - $199.00

Not having "CPU power to waste" is a personal decision nowadays. :-)
