<2> slimeball: my first home system was an atari 2600
<2> back int he 70s
<2> followed by an apple
<2> at least the atari had more then 2 colors...unlike the apple
<2> the first computer I ever seen was a vax terminal
<2> but that monster was huge...not something you would take home
<2> well the terminal was small but its usless unless connected to something
<4> that doesnt count.. and WHO didnt have 1 back then
<4> hell i think i got 1 around somewhere my my atari jaguar

<6> why is ddr2 cheaper than normal ddr :S
<0> scale
<6> scale?
<0> everyone makes ddr2 now
<6> ohk

<0> significant if your tasks are memory-transfer bound
<6> ohk
<0> if they're cpu or video bound, not much
<6> what kind of app are memory bound?
<0> those that use large datasets
<6> like?
<0> a lot of modeling
<6> ohk
<6> so like games?

<0> most games are gpu-bound
<6> ohk
<6> what about web browsing?
<0> your aunt's P3 can browse as fast as necessary :)
