this is now the "post your vista scores" thread...lol, actually i'm wondering how i got 5.9 on desktop performance but only 4.1 on gaming graphics. =3
this is on a 3 year old $800 comp:
I own several computers at par or below that performance level, there all still great for the internet surfing and a lot of things. I wouldn't ditch it yet...

On that note, I used a PIII 1GHz Coppermine machine with 512MB RAM (Max.) for 2 years. Did pretty much everything I needed it to do. Was not into gaming at the time (still not, really). I then used it as a server for another year or so, and now my older 2.08GHz HP replaced it as the server, but I still run the PIII 24/7 for a file backup server.
I also have a P4 1.5GHz eMachine, w/ 512MB RAM that friends use when they visit.
