Incredibly slow laptop

[VirtualLarry]

Understand that the non-savvy user will not frequent light, basic sites. They will be going to popular sites like Amazon. A real world benchmark could be something like a browser can have Yahoo!, Gmail, Amazon, youtube video running, and a IM program running in the background without being crippled by the slightest hiccup. Maybe add Instagram and Tumblr to really push things.

Don't forget, be on a Skype video call. That can really cripple those older laptops with slow CPUs. Even my N2830/2840 Bay Trail Atom laptop gets really bogged down by Skype, if Firefox has a lot of tabs open and running, after I've had it on for a while.

Skype is an IM, but yeah, I wasn't specific. I'm not surprised at your results, given that it succeeded Saltwell. Even with it being a new arch, it can only improve so much from the previous generation.
