Or how bloody-minded comparisons tell you little. The reason you need horsepower on the board is not because computations are bearish. Rather, all the human interface code.
I worked on government systems two decades ago that had four-decade old technology and worked great. Why? All the user interface agony was offloaded to dedicated consoles.

Information may be more or less truthful in content. This is a separate question from what you do with the information. Consider carefully Mark 7:5-15, and let me know on which side of the argument you fall.
