This is particularly high praise when you know what really tough

Then they are stupid ;-)
I am working at a 1 GHz Athlon and we build computers so if I thought it
would make any difference to my productivity I'd upgrade it. For the
tasks I do it would make no difference and just cost me money and more
importantly time.
Robert Derman replies: Pay attention Ian, these people are not
concerned with costs, nor with what buisness or academic users need,
only with raw performance particularly with high end games! They will
never give a top score to a product for merely being the best of its
type, it must be significantly better than any competitor, and have at
least 1 major new innovation besides to score a 10! That's what I mean
by tough critics.
