My OS is XP and I don't think it'll run a WAV. Just tell me about it.

A classic response.

He has just proved the point I have been making all along. ;-)



JimH, It was a joke, and a good one at that.

Slid right past him, didn't it!

AMD is no longer the "cheap" chip, and hasn't been for several years. Using benchmarks, AMD
has given Intel a run for the money. It seems, lately, the speed lead has been switching back
and forth, with every new generation of chip.

The cheap AMD chips are cheap indeed, but there's nothing wrong with
them, and the high-end AMD chips are as thunder sez.

You are undoubtedly correct. But, when you were telling us about the
computer you were building, didn't you say you were using an Intell chip?

Yup. But unless you are a high-end gamer or use certain
processor-optimized apps (of which there are almost none), you're not
going to notice any speed difference between a high-end Intel and a
high-end AMD CPU. The only computer game I have installed on this
desktop is MS Golf.

I didn't listen, so don't know what it was. But, the story of William Tell
and the overture together make a good way to show children how music can be
used to enhance a story. It, Peter and the Wolf, and the Nutcracker Suite
were used by my mom to get me started, and I was able to get my kids hooked
the same way.

I am cheap and NEVER buy the state of the art chip. I normally buy one
or two one step below the state of the art. You pay a hefty premium for
a small increase in performance.

When I returned my Dell with an Intel chip, I purchased a AMD chip,
because all of the speed test run on the software I used showed AMD was
outperforming the equivalent Intel chip.

I could see a substantial increase in speed between the two computers,
but i am not sure how much of that was the CPU and how much was the
computer set up and preinstalled trialware, freeware, spyware and
bloatware installed on the machines. Gateway puts on substantially less
than Dell.

I think the high end Gateways are using the Intel processor now. It seems
like the race between Intel and AMD is always changing leaders.

I agree with your comments about Dell. It takes a while to get rid of junk
Dell puts on their machines. I don't think I'll buy from Dell again. The
next one will be home built or built at the shop where I'd buy the parts.
I'll probably let them build it just so I'll have someone to complain to if
there's a problem. I added a gig of ram a few months ago and noticed some
improvement in speed with this Dell, so I'm pretty satisfied with it now. I
bought a 160gig Seagate external hard drive, so I've plenty of room now.

Hey JohnH, did you know windows will play wav files. ;)

Really? Wow! XP just seems to do everything!

Better greens fees with MS Golf. I shoot in the low 60's.
