My slowest PC is also the first one I ever owned - a whopping 1.0227 MHz.

It's a Commodore VIC-20, BTW - and it still works.

My wifes' PC is a Athlon 1.2 G-
She loves it-
I put it in a $15 case with funky lights glowing and she thinks it's a top unit.
Allshe does is internet and Word - so she doesn't know any difference :lol:

I guess a PC is only as fast as it needs to be?

pretty much...but i have noticed when building computers, that even offices that only need computers to write a word document/check emails ask for 2.8ghz HT with DDR2 etc. People get a PC based on what they WANT it to be, which is a lot higher, lol...pretty silly, i dont understand why!!

I'm guessing it's my iPhone.

But real PC, that's gotta be my P2 system. No clue how fast it is or so... and well, :effort: checking.

I guess it's slow. But all it dos is burn dust and run a local webserver when I need it
