I'm amazed that even "low-end" budget machines are so

But applications are still just as slow as they have always been.
Yes, unfortunately that much is still true, for a lot of applications.
It's not that my desktop runs every application super fast, there is
still a lot of slowness and slugishness, but they are caused by badly
designed code or other problems. Some of them might not even be affect
by a hardware spec change at all (like code that does long-running or
IO-blocking operations in UI-thread, etc.)
