I don't hear much advertised these days for anything slower than 1ghz machines and there's P4 2.6ghz chips about, processors seem to be speeding up almost exponentially, I only wonder about what sort of figures will be considered nextgeneration in 12 months from today? what do does the average pc owner do with 4ghz? |

one of my former teachers told us that there is no use for more than 100MHz, that was when i got my 33Mhz 386 |

"what do does the average pc owner do with 4ghz?" Apparently they fly into space. I couldn't imagine having something like that. |

remember whats-his-name's law: processor speed doubles every 18 months he made this up a long time ago and its supposed to actually be pretty accurate historically... it would be interesting to look up some archived newspaper ads and such, and check this out yourself to see how true it is |
