Believe me. There is never enough processing power in the world. My computer is a PIII450 with 256MB RAM. My computer runs Unreal Tournament at well over 30 FPS, at 1200x1080 rez, and in 32 bit color depth, and great. However, my Windows apps STILL slowdown. Computing is coming at a point in which you want supercomputing power at your desktop. Many people are now doing simulations on their desktops, and they need all the processing power they can get. Also, there are people like me everywhere who think that a computer can never be powerful enough. No matter what comes out, we want more power, and we want to show off our power to other people.
