Rupsky - Re: " and you have a system that can pretty much do whatever today's programs demand and you still have not spent $1,000. "

As long as you run only one program at a time and you don't have any serious graphics requirements - like Web pages to be displayed. Try running 3 or 4 (or more) to make good use of a Windows environment and you'll be unpleasantly surprised.

Also, when Java applets need to be run, you can have the advantage of watching these run in slow motion.

Java is only a minor concern today - but in a few months, its impact may start to be felt. And a lot of MediaGX owners are going to wonder why their systems all of a sudden are running real slowly.
