I was thinking about this today. In math class I got bored and started playing with my calculator (TI83) and a friends calculator (TI84). I wrote the same program, essentially x=1 while true print x inc x end while on both calculators. Starting both at the same time, the TI84 naturally counted faster than the TI83. But while the TI84 was faster, I've used both models a lot and have never really noticed a huge difference. On the other hand, a TI89 that I use for a different class and performs noticeably faster at stuff (and when I ran the program on it later, seemed to count much faster).
