hey kenny, can you point to one thing mr. bill did to improve the productivity of the millions of Americans that work every day. Consider the work of Engineers and scientists who gave us computers and software applications and the internet and all the robots who created products that worked better and better. I consider suggesting the President had anything to do with the increases in productivity is retarded and thus a statement like the "clinton economy" is retarded.

When mr. bill to office, the processing power of a p3-866 was the power of a supercomputer. It was just a high end PC processor when he left.

Intel 486DX to the 486DX4/100: 1989 to March 1994

Our romp through history begins in 1989 with the Intel 486DX
processor, originally clocked at 25 MHz. It contained 1.2 million
transistors, had an L1 cache of 8 KB and worked with a voltage of 5 V.
Although we had suitable boards and processors available for testing,
we were not able to record any test results. Theoretically, you can
install Windows XP on a 486 machine, but you cannot conduct any
meaningful tests.

Intel 486DX to the 486DX4/100: 1989 to March 1994
The next 486 class: Intel 486DX2-50 with 50 MHz processor speed.

That's 1994 to the present.
