Craig,
you could be right. Most older computers have a smaller front end bus (you
know, I don't remember how fast) This one is a 350 Mhz and a 100 Mhz front
end bus. I found that it goes just as fast as some of my friends that have
600Mhz and up. I think it is because I run msconfig occasionally and turn
off all unnecessary startup programs. The new pentium 4 are supposed to
have a 250 Mhz or bigger front end buss.
