By my standards, you're a speed demon.  Heck the one I'm using now is a
P3/800--I don't think I have anything faster.  With 1.5Mb/sec DSL and the
kind of work I do, I can't see a use for anythig speedier.  (BTW, this is
an old HP Vectra--never had a lick of trouble with it).  Running Win2K.

I've got mobos for faster CPUs, just never saw the need for taking the
trouble to install them.  What do I care if a compile takes 5 seconds or 8
seconds?  If I'm doing something like a big build, I just shunt it off onto
another system.

This ties into the post about "Recommendations for OS-es".  It all depends
on what you're doing.  

As a side topic perhaps suitable for another thread, how many of us use our
computers for computing in the sense of mathematical computation?  A
spreadsheet would be a good example of such a use.  

Cheers,
