Moore's Law sucks. Screw Moore and the CPU he rode in on.

That's still a decent box. It's only 100MHz slower than my box. I'd definitely up the RAM (which is super cheap these days), but other than that, it's good. It's not the fastest machine ever, but I'd still call that a "decent little box". It's just not a superbeast.
So what? It does what you want it to, and that's what's important.
