I'm fine with mine too

I too have an AMD 3200+ (64 bit version) and it has 768 Megs of RAM to work with. I think the processor is plenty fast enough, even for the video editing work I do with it. I think the biggest limiting factor these days in speed is the hard drive. I have a laptop with a 100 gig hard drive that's only 5400 RPM. I would love to see hard drives, especially for laptops, available in faster rotational speeds and faster data transfer rates. Having a super fast modern processor doesn't do a lot of good when you do a lot of work with data on the hard drive and have to wait for it to transfer the data. Maybe someone could shake up the hard drive/data storage market by developing a super-fast storage technology or coming up with a breakthru in the way hard drives write, retrieve, and transfer data.

Come on America... put your thinking caps on and innovate!
