I loved windows 2000 pro Zim.
And the Pentium D processor on the upper end like the one described at 2.8Ghz speed was pretty good.
However, with that said, the speed of a processor must also be able to have a wide open highway for data to flow and that is The BUS speed and the speed of the RAM plus how much is there.
A real sure fire way to really notice instantaneous results from clicking on some data to appear right now or anything else is to use a Solid State hard drive, which is basically flash memory.
There are NO MOVING parts like a five disc hard disk to be searched. Amazing how fast a computer will boot up using a flash drive or a solid state disk, which are pretty close to the same thing.
Have you ever installed an operating system on a 128 GB memory stick and used it as your hard drive?
Pretty cool and fast.....
SO many neat things going on in the tech world.
I did not realize Office 10 was such a pain. Glad I do not use it... Thanks for the warning.
I use OPEN OFFICE or I use office 2007 depending on the machine.
WHat I do not want is windows 8 or 10 . I keep hoping Linux will come out with a distro as easy to use as windows, especially when it comes to installing a program you want. I like easy and repeatability.
Looks like M1 got his problem resolved. Am glad.
Time to call it a night.
I have a Physical tomorrow morning. First one in a long time and I need my annual Pneumonia shot, which I am very prone to get and susceptible to.
Good night all !!!
