Computers

Greg asked me the other day if I was going to buy a computer that would have sufficient speed for what I need. I responded honestly that I do not believe such a thing exists. I’ve been using personal computers nearly daily for about 15 years. I’ve had the latest and greatest at various times. As of yet I’ve never used or owned one that did everything I wanted it to do at the speed I desired.
 
I am beginning to understand it simply does not exist and apparently never will. I’m not sure why, but apparently it is beyond the reach of computer architects everywhere.
 
I spend a tremendous amount of my work day waiting on the computer. Then I come home and spend a lot of time waiting on my home computer. Unfortunately, a considerable amount of work I need to do involves the computer, and computers seem to require waiting. Way too much waiting. Lots of waiting.
