Tracker

so we try to be clear to clients that yes OS X is slower on the same hardware than OS 9 was (this is from /. btw) and then bang, along comes something like this: Microsoft is expected to recommend that the 'average' Longhorn PC feature a dual-core CPU running at 4 to 6GHz; a minimum of 2 gigs of RAM; up to a terabyte of storage; a 1 Gbit, built-in, Ethernet-wired port and an 802.11g wireless link; and a graphics processor that runs three times faster than those on the market today.'" ok. that's a lot of hardware for an average machine. and, for all you normal people, Longhorn is to WindowsXP as OS X is to OS 9 (oversimplifying here; apologies to those who see i'm skipping some big differences).
