Dont make it sound so surprising, I have 800 PC's under my control. slowest is P3-1000......over 50% are P4's.....governments aren't that far behind the times.....why did they skimp on the RAM so much?

I have a P3 desktop, the rest of the department is on P2's and I work at IT, course then again all I need is telnet to do most of my job.

Government is way behind when it comes to the computers the USPS use. My local uses a 486 :Q
