WC> I was over to my landlady's house the other day WC> and there in all it's splendor stood a WC> GHz Hewlett Packard with gobs of memory WC> a huge hard drive, cable modem and every imaginable WC> gadget and gizmo attached. WC> So I sit down expecting a wonderous and fast net experience WC> and what do I find? WC> The blasted computer running Win XP at a GHz with cable modem WC> is three times slower than my 66 Mhz 486 running Windows 3.1 WC> and a 28,800 dialup!!! WC> I got up and walked away from the damn thing being WC> too impatient to wait for a web page to load. WC> You couldn't give me a copy of XP after seeing that _performance_. WC> Why people buy crap like that astounds me. There's obviously something wrong with this picture; and, I don't know that XP has anything at all to do with it. TTYL.
