The other thread (What kind of rig you running? List your PC!!!) has people all proudly listing their state of the art system. I'm wondering if the people with a more modest system aren't just too intimidated by all those Gigahetz computers.
So, who has a computer with a processor lower than, say 1 Ghz?
I'm mean as your main computer, not as a peice of collection.
As I said in the other thread, mine is a Celeron 333. It's just about did its time. I usually last a computer until it doesn't meet the minimum system requirements on most new software. New games right now require a minium of a 366 Mhz. So, I should be buying a new computer within the next year or so.

about 550 mHz if I recall. We do have an old 486 running Windows 98 that the kids sometime use for wordprocessing and similar low end homework stuff. It may be the only win98 machine that goes for weeks without a crash - of course that's because it's easier to keep it running and it only gets used every few weeks.
