Bloody hell, the world of Windows has gone totally crazy now if a
Celeron 2.6GHz is seen as a 'starter system', that's only useful for
internet and office work.

Where's all that processing power going?


Processing power? Bwaaahahaha! Any Celeron is a cheap, downmarket
toy processor.


Yep a 2.6 Ghz Celeron is _so_ underpowered. There is no way I could
even get a command prompt in windows 98 from such a slow toy
processor.

I mean I can't understand why so many companies use Celron based
machines after all they must be under great strain creating word
doucments and performing email activities.

Its not like they have anywhere near the processing power of say a
PIII 500 or anything that mighty.
