We're kinda hurling a accusation with out much data. Some of us here work for the companies you're taking a shot at...I want to respect your opinion...just I take it as a bit of a harsh statement at the moment. Respectfully, John
In the late 1990's I could easily surf the internet looking at text and pictures. But a computer that's only a couple years old suddenly struggles with today's texts and pictures? Please... What . a . joke .
I'm very proficient at cleaning out a system to get it to run optimally. Don't worry, I don't play around with systems full of spyware. But my point being is that 90% of what we're looking at texts and pictures, and somehow there's a mild struggle? The only thing that changed was software; the webpages might even be identical. But somehow magically when I load Linux a computer from 3 years ago it can do simple tasks again.
If you're in the industry this should drive you nuts too. You might want to sell new stuff, but let's get real frank, most people haven't needed a speed upgrade for a decade. The advent of HD is the biggest push for the average non-gaming, non-video editing persons.
IF this technology offers anything useful to the average person it'll be a more compact unit with less power and heat constraints. The speed will be negligible to people, and only the form factor and battery life will be an upgrade for them.
Ugh, Erg, UHHHH *pop* a 2 page PDF opens.
