What I meant was "why are you upgrading, and what are you currently finding slow?"
I often have at least five programs open (Firefox, Kmail, amaroK, Kopete, and F-Spot), and this 1.2 gHz AMD Duron machine, even with 1GB of RAM, is dead-slow. Programs take forever to open, webpages take forever to load. I know that I've got a bad mix of KDE and Gnome apps, but there are KDE apps (Kate) that I just can't replace, and there are Gnome apps (F-Spot) that I have yet to find comparable KDE apps for. And although Firefox is GTK-based, there are extensions that I just can't live without. I've tried many times to move to Konqueror. I know that throwing hardware at the problem is not the answer, but in the future I only expect my loads to increase (Skype is open often too, now). A machine that will handle it is nessaccary.
