I own a transit that is accurate within two seconds.
(it was the cats meow ten years ago)
now with the new GPS systems i am overwhelmed.
Recently my dirt work contractor had an error of 6' Six Feet!
I calculated it the old schoolway and nailed it!
I was trained by an Ex-Marine,
1/4 inch off was unaccetibale.
Now you are asking "John what does this have to do with the speed of my computer?"
I say " I dunno, The kid at Kroger could not make the correct change when the computer crashed the other nite"
My point. Faster computers dont mean squat to me. There is always human error. Dont trust the machine!

1 GB ram on my dads PC which is the main computer I use, and 1.5 GB on my computer. Strangely enough, this PC runs better than my computer, even with less RAM, though I would say that is accounted for by a processor that is 3 ghz vs 1 ghz, and the bus speed of my computer is 100 mhz while the one on this PC is 400 or 800 IIRC.
Bus speed makes a huge difference... Well it used to at least-
