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 !!!

Micro> Can your motherboard accept more than one gig?

I'm sure that one will.
But, considering that I only run it once a week to do
some Access data base work (I keep one version of my
portfolio on it) I see no point in spending any money
on it. It does everything I need it to do in a
timely manner.

As Decomposed said, some of the older software works
better than the junque 'they' are peddling today. On
the XP box I have Microsoft Office 2000 . . . Once a
week I fire it up to do some database work. Then
back off for another week. The 'Office 10' stuff
they have me using at work is driving me nuts. Stuff
that used to be easy to find and do are difficult.
And help seems to no longer be just a keystroke away.

Zim.
