I've never quite understood this need for speed. Every system I've had,
with windows, has always been fast enough for what I want.
What exactly do people need extra speed for? Overtaking traffic?
i know what you mean but when software undergoes continuing massive bloat
as it has done on both the windows and linux (applies to freebsd)
platforms it requires ever increasing processing power to function.
I have noticed that FreeBSD on a slower box is as quick as linux on a
slightly faster box. It's only a subjective observation of course.
Don't take any notice of me, xpee is ok in the main, if you know what you
are doing, if you can properly operate a firewall and antivirus package
and if you remember never to run any untrusted software with administrator
privileges and if you swap out internet explorer for something else like
opera or firefox and if you dump outlook express for something like
eudora or pegasus mail and if you do your office work with open office
instead of office xpee and if you remember to keep tabs on your system
services because xpee has a habit of switching services back on after you
have switched them off and if zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
