It's not faster, but I'd rather have it. It's got a much, much better display setup than my piddly Viewsonic P95f.

My computer at work is a fairly new, lower end IBM. We have 5 machines like this.

They all have really expensive capture cards though, for all the video editing work me and the video department team have to do (me and 2 other guys basically). For gaming though, the graphics cards suck.

Sounds like graphic design

that or video...

data center.

we have 6 thin clients whose only purpose is to Terminal Service into that server.

the reason for the huge array is because we have tons of ISO's (just about every version of most major linux distro's, plus a lot of apps that clients frequently as us to install).

I think the fastest PC we have at work is a P4 1.3Ghz. But its leaps and bounds ahead of the other machines, which are slower P3 450s, I think.
