I love you...sometimes.
That's pretty poor to be honest. Nowadays P4s are available in speeds of up to 3.8 GHz, with AMD Athlon 64 bit processors at speeds up to 4000.
I have more RAM than that, a new generation of video cards are out and... I can't be bothered going on.
Not bad for the money, but not brilliant either. Just no way near the greatest ever. You do get what you pay for after all.

Notorious Biggles, £649. So what if it hasn't got the latest processor or the most amount of RAM ever. This machine kicks butt, and you can read mobile sim cards and connect it to your Tv via a scart output. Heres a little flash movie on it

Well the title does say 'Possibly the greatest ever PC?' it's very good for it's price however nowhere near being great with regards to specs.
ALDI? Isnt that a German supermarket?
What are the point in 4GHz processors.
What are you EVER going to run that needs a processing speed that high.
If you can run a space shuttle on a calculator, you can sure as hell do anything with 1.5 GHz.

Projects like 'Find a Drug' and 'SETI' require a lot of processing power to crunch all those numbers. I'm waiting for the 10GHz processors :)
