Barry, re processor speed being more important to surfing the net than many think, I saw the same type of thing when canning my 486 at work for a PII-233 a year and a half ago. More surprising was the speed at which I could, e.g., clean up email after being out of the office for a week or so, while task switching back and forth between that and apps like Microsoft Project, Word, Excel, etc. Mail cleanup type thing, while task switching back and forth, seemed to be five to ten times faster, or something like that. That's goes right to productivity improvement. Tony
