Re:Still losing the speed race (Score 1)

Winamp shows up as o% percent on my computer, so it can't be for music. Anyway, I actually find that most people are rather impatient with computers, and that the response time of the system. While arguably this can be increase by using a better OS, most people are going to be using Windows. While it may only be one second, people have a tendency to recognize the slow down and exagerate the difference. True, it isn't worth $1000 for most people, but that's the only thing I could think of other than the majority of programs getting less efficient, and stupid web pages that use every plugin under the sun.
