Well, upgrading from a 750Mhz Athlon to a 3000+ 64 was like the difference between night and day. When I upgraded from a 233 to the 750 I was like, "Oh my GOD this is fast." I said the same thing the next time round. But as before, I am getting used to it or software is getting more bloated because I get mad at it being slow again sometimes...
