The 'how slow is your work computer' thread

[jim5000]

Working on a computer helpdesk, and today I am using a 1GHz Pentium 3 with 256mb of memory..

What makes it worse is that the library catalogue machines (for students to search for books) sit there all day with a single webpage open, running on 2.4Ghz, 1gig memory, hyperthreaded P4s!!!!!!!!

Hands up who else hasn't actually read a single post in this thread?

What do you mean? What could be more rivetting than the specs of people's work computers
