But you refuse to acknowledge that the things others find of any
consequence require more than what you find sufficient. As I said, you are
a DOS weanie.

Intel, AMD/Nvidia and a whole slew of other tech companies would have gone
bankrupt years ago if they stopped developing newer, better and faster
technologies.

When a customer comes in asking for a hdd drive or flash drive, they often
ask for capacities that are no longer available in the brick and mortar
retail supply chain. With flash drive, I have been asked if we had any 32mb
ones, our smallest is 2gb. With hdd, I have been asked for 80gb ones, our
smallest is 500gb and we go up to 1.5tb. They are dumbfounded, I tell them
that the manufacturers make the capacities they offer, basicly because they
can. Through this development is why things are the way they are and what
they pay for in capacity that they might not need is what they would have
paid for when the sought capacity was at the pinnacle.

Open your eyes Dan, your computer needs isnt everyones.
