    Hi
    Just checking to see if my
    Old desktop hp pavillion 403.uk , at least 8 yrs old
    1.8 Celeron., 2gb ram, xp pro, office 2007

    Was the slowest!
    A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist.

    A young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent,
    the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law.

    My clunker testing machine, with allsorts of rubbish on it, 2.3 Celeron with 1GB ram, XP pro =147secs.

    Following on from post#64

    Got around to firing up one of my other thin clients, 1GHz, ram maxed out at 512MB, running brand new image of XPe. 25 processes running, result..............386secs.
    Would have done screen print, but it doesn't seem to have a way of saving it. :)
