Makes me laugh. When I got my first computer in 1987 it took so long to load a small game from cassette that I could go downstairs, boil a kettle, make a cuppa, and bring it back to my room, and the game would be just about finished loading. Now people are moaning about an extra half a second lol

- andrepd 2y agoComputers are thousands to millions of times faster. So yes, that's a true assessment.
- paulddraper 2y ago> millions of times faster Unless you had a 3KHz processor (and no processor ever had that), that statement is just not true.
- andrepd 2y agoIt's not about raw clock speed, or a Zen 4 would be as fast as a Pentium 4 :)
