Opening or visiting a page sky rockets the cpu to 100%. Ram usuage is just as bad and to top it.. im on sdram ram on win2k with 256mb ram. Can't wait till i get my new stuff!

If i throw this out the window then i would only have an laptop ( P M 1600mhz) which ins't mine and i dunno how long it will be here. So BLAHHHH.. damn p2's!

I use it on a Pentium Pro 200mhz. It's bearable. Anything slower would be suicidal :p

Might try Opera. Have found it performs quite well on older machines (PII 266, PII 400, K6-2 500).
