[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1172516, member: 56379"] You're missing my point dude.;) I'm theoretically saying that if you had the same apps as the OP mentioned (MS Office 2008 & video editing software), you have both a 1.33ghz & 500mhz computer, and if those same exact apps were installed on both your computers...then you are in the perfect position to know how much better the 1.33ghz is compared to the 500mhz. Since you have both computers (and I'm assuming you have used them both)...then you can theoretically (from your experience) "guestimate" how much slower the 500mhz is. Thus YOU & I both agree that a 500mhz iBook that the OP is talking about is too darn slow for their purposes!;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
