True, but I upgraded recently to 64 bit Win 7, with a 6 core processor and
SSD drive. Reddit seems a lot zippier :-)
I don't understand why people think it's ok for basic, basic shit that would
have ran fine on a Pentium 1 (and less) to now require what quite literally
is a super-fucking-computer-on-the-desktop just to run acceptably.
Seriously, what the fuck's the point of buying all this insanely powerful
hardware if software just turns the damn thing right back into a fucking
single-core P1? That's just insane. People are seriously fucking bat-shit
crazy.
Have you seen this:

They compare and old Macintosh from the 80's against a fairly new PC.
