It's not so much a case of upgrading to the latest physical technology that
is required though in many cases, but an upgrade simply in the browser. In
almost all cases a free upgrade at that. I concede that a P1 Win95 with 75MB
of RAM may not be as efficient in use as a new machine, but the display on a
modern, standards compliant browser on both machines should be no different.
That said there may be hardware/software issues that prevent a modern
browser being used on an old, low spec machine, and this is where a
realistic view needs to be taken regarding the advancement of a
technology/standard over the ability of users to keep pace with said
technology.

I think this discussion has now moved far enough away from the originally
posted question to warrant it redundant.
