My recollection is still strong about how little relative difference there was between my old 133 and new 400. Now here's a man who definitely hasn't tried to edit any digital video<g>. Regards, --QwikSand

I got a new P450 at the office to replace my P133. For general wordprocessing, small/medium size databases and spreadsheets and Internet stuff, I really can't tell much of a difference. Our office network is just too slow. Can't tell much difference for trading and Qcharts between the chips. The big difference in the chips are felt when I'm dealing with large pictures from my camera or scanner. That's when the chip makes a difference to me. My older computers are fine for most things. Just make sure they have enough memory, at least 64k, 128k much better. Fast drives can also make a big difference.
