    You know, most DOs games ran fine on a 200MHz CPU, would you say we should have stopped development at that point?
    Or maybe they should've made Crysis less of a ressource hog than Far Cry, I mean lower texture resolutions, less polygons, less scripts, less AI, smaller world......
    What's the point of getting 200fps instead of 60?
    And to come get to the original topic, what is Office performance anyway?
    If my Core 2 Duo starts choking when I write a letter in Vista, I'll probably go back to DOS.
    Reminds me of this new benchmark from Futuremark that tested whether my PC could show a HD-video, convert another one, upload yet another one and encode a fourth one at the same time or something useless like that.

    That said, until I get my next paycheck from Microsoft (it's overdue ) I'll advise you not to get Vista, doesn't really offer anything important over XP.

    By the way, can they sue me for trying to appear like their employee when I'm not?
