Shanti’s Dispatches
Time waits for no man.
My desktop PC is just about 3 years old now. Though I do all my Rails coding on my mac mini screen, it’s great to be able to seamlessly move my mouse back and forth between my PC and Mac via Synergy.
My only complaint with Synergy is that every few days the copy & paste functionality between the two computers stops working & I have to restart the app (takes just 30 sec).
But yeah my PC is pretty slow, anyone out there own an AMD Athlon 64 X2 system?
I hear they are supposed to be a lot faster than the similarly-priced Intels.

Yep, the AMD Athlon 64 X2 systems scream compared to intel at the same price points. Just put one together a couple of months ago…the system I had was a couple of years old…and it totally ROCKS. All the games I couldn’t play on the other system now cruise and with all settings to max. Check out tomshardware for their cpu comparison chart.
