I think that if the machine crashing is bothersome enough to ask on the mailing lists, that is enough to make it important. I can only think of a few tasks that require that extra tiny bit of speed to make the machine undependable. And those few tasks arent even worth it. . . Personally, I think if you can afford to put hardware's life spans on the line, you can afford to buy a slightly faster machine. ;) On Thu, 27 May 1999, Shawn Ramsey wrote: > At 08:52 PM 5/27/99 -0400, Chuck Youse wrote: > >I hate to point out the obvious, but generally, folks, CPUs are rated for > >given clock speeds for a reason.
