Jacky AY,

Sure,

Anytime that you get into 'real time' video processing, whether it is simulated crash testing, or medical research, weather forecasting, or any other 'real time' processing (internet), the faster the better. As there are only 3600 seconds in an hour, and that can't be stretched, the more that I can get done, the better simulation can be made. Until now, that kind of simulation had to run on your Cray computers, and as the CPU speed creeps to 1Ghz, with virtually unlimited resources (Ram and Disk) more research power is becoming available!

I'm not trying to say that all areas need the 1Ghz computer, especially for word processing, but Matrix Math can sure use the 'HEAT'

Regards,

Ken
