*us*?? LOL!

PDF. PDF pegs the processor. Printing a 1,000-pager to PDF would benefit from a 3GHz processor. <vBg>

Or, how about this, dialing the Internet with a dumb modem uses clock cycles. <g>

Other than that, the vast majority of users don't need 3GHz. Really, even for games. The 64-128-256 MB 3D AGP video cards can process video games without relying so much on the main chip. The real bottleneck for the non-dweeb home user is their typing speed, not the processor speed.

Certainly, as-is, FrameMaker is light on its feet and FrameMaker is still happy on a 166MHz P5 chip.

Cheers,

Sean
