I must be a geek!!
Ran the test (had to use IE instead of Firefox because even though I
have the latest version of Firefox, I couldn't
load the "IE tab" plug-in)

Anyway, here's the summary of the results from PCPitstop:

This system performs extremely well on our benchmarks and appears to
be among the fastest systems available! See the information below for
your system details and advice on how to tweak the hardware and
software for best performance.



Cool. I wonder what I am doing correctly?

It's too bad we can't get our resident computer idiot savant, "Reggie,"
to run the standard benchmark, like 3DMark06, on his "hot" XP machine,
so we can see how much faster it is than my "slug" of a VISTA machine.
